How to make your protein milkshake a party in your mouth! Let's face it, sometimes we plug our noses and down our protein milkshakes because they're either too runny, too much like trying swallow peanut butter, or so full of artificially flavored lumps that we gag and risk hurling up the expensive supplements we just swallowed! However, with a few minor adjustments, protein milkshakes can be made so they're tasty and just how you like them to be; a full on party in your mouth!
Step 1: start with the right protein powder supplement There are thousands of choices of protein powder supplements. Some taste terrible and others are pretty great right out of the container. Whey, casein, soy, egg, and milk make up the most of the protein milkshake powders you can purchase. Some mix easily and others don't. Above all of that however, some are made from high quality protein and nutrients and other are not. Do your homework and choose one that has both quality proteins and has a ratio of protein to carbohydrates that meets your fitness goals!

Step 2: thicken it, thin it, smoooooth it! Consider adding ice cubes, frozen fruit or frozen fat free pudding to thicken a runny shake and water or fat free cow, soy or rice milk to make one thinner. For a smoother creamier shake you might add a tablespoon of sugar-free pudding and make sure you mix it well. If your shake if full of un-dissolved protein powder lumps blend your liquid of choice and ice slowly and then gradually add protein powder and the other ingredients blending thoroughly or mix your protein powder in a small amount of warm water first then add it to the rest of your ingredients.
Step 3: flavor it so you favor it! If your shake tastes as boring as cardboard or if you simply grown tired of the same thing over and over, try adding flavoring such as real vanilla extract, peanut butter, fruit, etc. If it's not sweet enough for you, add your favorite artificial sweetener, sugar, honey, stevia or whatever fires up your taste buds the best without compromising your caloric intake.
In closing... Remember, choosing the right protein milkshake supplement matters. Listen to what protein shake expert Marc McDougal says in an article from Mind and Muscle.net titled "Q and A with Marc McDougal", "Make sure you add things to the shake like healthy fats and fiber, both of which are almost impossible to find in a shake. And if you're going to be consuming a lot of your calories from shakes, make sure to use quality proteins. Whether it's whey, casein, or some combo, avoid the super cheap stuff. If it comes in a dog food bag, that's who it's for." (McDougal, 2007)
