Good morning!
Before I ask my question I just wanted to let you know that I'm new here and this actually is my first post. I have not had surgery yet, I think in the next 2 months.
Also I skimmed through and didn't see any topics directly related to my issue so I'm creating a new thread.
I've been drinking the pre-made Premier Protein drinks but after surgery it might be more economical to buy the protein powder and just mix how much I need. I also bought a portable single serving blender because it's so convenient.
My first impression is that the protein powder is unbearably sweet. I can't even get through the same amount I would in the pre-made containers. After a few trials what I was able to experiment by adding less of the Premier powder half (1/3 to 1/2), cut with tablespoon of either PB3 or a little unflavored protein.
I have been using 8 to 9 oz of skim milk. I put it all in the blender and what comes out is no less than the dark ooze from a Lovecraftian story.
The blender whips this chalky sweetness and that is the part I hate, 9 oz of mangable goop is now 14 oz of foamy torture that is only equaled to the disembowlment of William Wallace.
So I hope that you guys can have some suggestions about mixing so it doesn't whip. Someone suggested powdered milk, someone suggested I try almond milk, but rather than buy a bunch of stuff that may or may not work I thought I would ask to see if anybody else had the same issues or possibly a different way of making the cóctel de proteínas.
