I recently bought a jar of mocha latte muscle milk and it says to use 2 full spoons, but the spoons in the jar are pretty big. Do you guys use the full two spoons because even with a little amount of muscle milk there are tons of grains floating around which you can taste.

You just need to mix it up better... I use one of those hand held mixers and it works great.

be sure to drink it asap as once it settles for a few mins it becomes goop. i mix in the metamucil for fibre as well.

If that's what the instructions say, why would you do otherwise?

I used it a long time ago but I used the Magic Bullet on that shit! I can't drink it when it's all clumpy.

I only used one scoop, I remember reading back in the day that you can only really digest half the suggested amount and the rest goes to waste. I'm not sure if it's true or not but I'm not a big guy by any stretch and wasn't trying to be so I thought 1 scoop would work well for me.

Buy a shaker cup, but with one of those cutting grates in it. That'll destory the powder. I used Muscle Milk for a little while and mine mixed up fine in water or in milk. Mind you I used skim milk. But yeah.... try that out. You can get em at any supplement store.

Why dont you just buy the premade ones ? I drink them everywhere and right after the gym.. They are made perfect and are good!

I use one scoop. Would get pretty expensive using 2 scoops 3 times a day

Popeyes has them , i think GNC does as well. They are packs of 12 and are about 1000 times better tasting than the powder.

Try the banana one , its my favorite

The MM RTD taste good but it does say it contains some soy products. That I am trying to avoid. I heard Labrada is quite good.

In most cases, I'd agree

However Muscle Milk being an odd hybrid of isolates/cassins and other broken down aminos...

It has a tendancy to blend very well in a shaker cup

Remember to add water or milk first, then the powder = no lumps

In this case, the Power taste almost identical to the pre-mix as I have used both and bought a case/tub of both of rootbear float

In fact I like the powder better, as it just tastes less preserved...

Muscle Milk is one of the only proteins I can tolerate as I lost the taste for generic Whey & isolates

Best flavor? I like the root beer & strawberry
If you're into the real milkshake tastes, apparently the choco banana and cookies & cream is great

cookies and cream :drool:
best tasting protein shake even if you just mix with water
