Peptopro Flavouring

[markam]

Just bought some bulk unflavoured peptopro and am looking for ideas for flavouring it as it isn't exactly great tasting.

Gatorade powder. You can get it regular or artificially sweetened depending if you want the carbs or not.

Yes, I remember Gatorade being recommended before. Will put on shopping list, thanks.

Seen (and smelled) at the market today; hence Durian on my mind

From what I've read, to some people Durian is really foul, but others really like it. I'll see if the local asian shop has any. What's the best way of preparing it?

Funny about the durian... never even heard of it until last week when a relative sent a picture from Indonesia where she lives. Same review... some love it, some hate it.

I've only been able to get past the smell a couple of times, so I've not had it very often and then only in whole form (like eating any other fruit); but I imagine you could blender it up (though I can't imagine how THAT would smell!) It actually tastes pretty good if you can somehow avoid the odor, which is pretty difficult given the synesthesia of taste and smell

Never even heard of it before.

Such a sheltered life :)

Ok, I've found a cheap, effective, almost zero calorie flavouring solution.

15 ml concentrated lime juice. Really works well. I'm using 15g Peptopro pre and post with about 400 mls water.

Not sure it's actually any better (or as good) as humapro, though.

Why did you decide to flavor a non flavored peptopro rather than just buying peptopro with flavoring?

Myprotein in the UK sell bulk peptopro and unflavored was all that was available. Surprising how well lime juice works. I guess the bitterness of the peptopro goes well with the bitterness of lime.
