whey isolates: favorite flavors/ideas?

[allnatural923]

since isolates are sometimes somewhat tough to flavor, what flavors do you like/would you like to see in an isolate product?

also, what flavors do guys think suit an isolate product best: fruit type flavors, or more traditional protein powder flavors?

any and all thoughts and opinions welcome

 

[tilldeath]

fruit flavors are better IMO I love syntax's stuff when I tried it, also pink lemonade or a sour/tart grape is something I could drink any time. Or iforce's hemavol watermelon flavor is a winner as well.

 

[allnatural923]

yea, syntrax's flavors were all pretty good. and who doesn't love some hemavol watermelon

 

[mnowak1228]

Watermelon or Lemonade!!

Look to Ultimate Nutrition's Isosentation 93. I've had chocolate, cookies and vanilla, all in water, and for me they are excellent (all 3 amongst top 10 and I've tried many protein powders). Very underrated when you look to profile and flavour, IMO

 

[allnatural923]

Watermelon or Lemonade!!

more partial to lemon drop than lemonade

and amarula, agree with you about those flavors being decent. really light and a bit watery, but overall not bad taste for being pure isolate

 

[Swanson52]

Lime!

 

[bolt10]

Never had any trouble getting great tasting Isolate when I use Allmax's Isoflex (although they tend to be more "watery" compared to my preferred blends)

I would be more interested in some fruit flavored, as the Watermelon would be awesome if done right IMHO.

 

[allnatural923]

Lime!

now THAT would be interesting lol, would have to be done really well though otherwise nastiness could ensue :yuck:

 

[yazan]

Stay away from cookies and creme. Sounds good but it's not at all. Horrible after-taste and smell

I used to rock Isosensation 93 all the time; loved that stuff. And you're right, in water it still tasted delicious.

I'm personally a fan of traditional protein flavors and tend to loathe fruit-flavored proteins.

Yeah I'd buy lime, just get it similar to fanta lime! Come to think of it why has no one done something with slight carbonation in protein, like NO xplode?

 

[AZMIDLYF]

I use a Jamocha flavored Iso and love it

 

[monstermash]

Anything that can taste like Biorhythm's afterglow watermelon is best imho. With that said, I buy chocolate flavored iso the most since afterglow is ridiculously expensive and only get it when they have free samples.

Allmax PB isoflex is out of this world! just so much $$$

agreed, amazing flavoring.



I like fruit flavors best with isolates. when they're so thin, its just blah with chocolate/vanilla flavoring

It's good but WTF $120 for 4 lbs.????

 

[howwedo107]

Sour apple!!!!

Ya therefore I use it very sparingly

I still prefer to spend more for something that tastes good and from a reputable brand but I know that option isn't for everyone.

I prefer a company to have both fruity and cream based flavors, cause I switch back and forth

 

[jbryand101b]

Me, I prefer lemon drop over the watermelon. Lol

 

[howwedo107]

Raspberry creme

 

[jbryand101b]

Raspberry creme

Yuk

 

[breezy11]

Graham (or honey graham) cracker.
Candied Apple or Caramel Apple.

Candied apple sounds good, others double yuk.

Peanut butter and jelly....apple pie.......orange sorbet

 

[VaughnTrue]

Peanut butter and jelly....apple pie.......orange sorbet

these were be good in blends(like Protean), but would be hard to make taste good as an Isolate...but ya never know!

 

[southsideguy]

I don't know why people keep looking over Isopure ( carb free)... I love that stuff

no one is overlooking it. we're discussing flavoring

Wait; your right... Sorry guys; I'm headed to the Anabolics section...

Carry on....

Yeah, I was thinking an Apple Pie or Apple Crisp Protean (possibly with vanilla ice cream flavoring included) would be good. S'mores came to mind too.

 

[allnatural923]

definitely will have to try this since few peanut butter flavors I've tried are free of that chemical-type taste and i do love me some peanut butter

mfg: that flavor sounds epic

All max now makes it's isolate (called chiller) with two fruit flavors.

I don't know if we are allowed to post links. I have 2 pounds of the citrus peach heading my way.

 

[allnatural923]

Me, I prefer lemon drop over the watermelon. Lol

but nah, i can see what you mean bro lol, flavors with bit of a sour kick to them tend to be higher in my book

 

[bomcgraw]

Agreed. I'd pay extra for that flavor.

You will NOT be disappointed but watch out, you'll find yourself drinking it just for the hell of it.

would probably be a good way to curb my peanut butter cravings lol

Vanilla mint swirl end thread! That's the only protein I'll ever use again!! I'm addicted

 

[amarula]

If you all remember one of the ALRI threads, I think people, for the same reasons, shouldn't support Syntrax products..

 

[allnatural923]

stuff really is addicting lol one of those proteins where you conserve it and make sure you always have some around

Asked for it for fathers day coming up lol wish I knew if the other proteans were as good as the RVC n VMS she said she will buy me 2-3 tubs so I'm being on my best behavior lol

honestly can't go wrong with any of the flavors. Strawberry and vanilla cupcake batter are awesome and right up there with RVC and VMS for me , the cupcake batter is awesome for cooking purposes too lol

mmmmm, citrus peach. wonder if it tastes anything like mango peach tea

What brand?

 

[T-Bone]

I have been trying Bodystrong lately.

I mix all natural peanut butter with vanilla protein usually. No supplement maker has ever made a decent flavored choc-pb protein ever. They all taste like crap in that flavor.

from my experience I would definitely have to agree lol, seems like such a hard flavor to nail down

I just got it today. I'm going to use post workout in the morning mixed with some simple carbs and ice. I'll let ya know if it's good stuff.

 

[allnatural923]

sounds good bro.

idk about anyone else here, but an arnold palmer flavored isolate wouldn't be bad
