One huge negative of Posiedon

Ughhh.....Workin im sorry. Ok this isn't huge but I wanted to get peoples attention that this is a great supplement and the only thing I can possibly find wrong with Posiedon is that when i mix it with my sugar free cranberry apple drink mix, it doesn't taste good. Infact I had it with my BCAA's and it was terrible. I had a real tough time sipping it. The only thing new was 2 scoops Posiedon.

just gonna have to stick with any other flavor than cranberry apple (my favorite :( ).

Workin if this is the biggest of your problems with your supps. I think the new stuff is gonna be amazeing. Keep it up bro.:bruce3:
 
You don't have to mix it with anything but water.

1 or 2 scoops in a few ounces of water and it has basically no taste to it. Sort of like an alka seltzer.

Yea I know I was just saying the only possible negative thing I could find is this.

I love posiedon and I love cranberry apple drink and I can't have my two loves at the same time. I guess I was just trying to get to greedy.
 
Yea but the problem is the title stands out like a sore thumb when you look at the list of new posts.

So the MANY people who do not bother to click and read each post, all they see is the thread title and that sticks in their head. Not good IMO.

:think: Sh:t......I was hopeing it may have the effect for people to click on it and see what the problem is and then relize thats the only bad thing.

I have made a ton of posts on how wonderful I think Posiedon is, man.........i didnt want to have that effect. Yea Crowler your right
 
What kind of cran drink mix are you using? I've used pretty much every flavor of crystal lite and really didn't notice anything out of the ordinary.

Yea I know me too, thats why im so sad. It's walmart generic brand singles of cranberry apple.

Infact on my non-workout days I mix like 4-5 scoops in my gallon jug of crystal lite and love it.

Try the orange mix... man that stuff is goooood.
 
No, the worst part is that once you start using it, you can't stop. Now my wallet hurts.
 
It changes the taste of Pink Lemonade Crystal Lite somehow, and for some reason I think it tastes even better with the Poseidon? :think:

I'm the same way about apple juice. Makes me throw up if I drink anything over about 1/2 cup.

Strawberry.... comes from mixing my first strawberry protein with water using a spoon and downing clumps and all.:sick:
 
Damn! That brings back some BAD memorys! I can't drink anything that taste like strawberrys... PUKE

On a side note - PO-BA was a great buy! I mixed it with my Propel, which was pretty good

Awesome to hear about the Poseidon BA Matt. What flavor Propel do you use?

P.S. I'm right there with you on the strawberry flavored drinks man.

Yea same here. I had ON 100% whey with water in a regular cup, I puked it right up. It tasted like the pink medicene you got when you were a kid. Not the dark pink stuff I could drink that tasted great.....the other light pink crap.

When people are talking about how great the BSN stawberry syntha-6 I stil shy away even though the other flavors are all awsome.

Well I mixed 1 scoop Posiedon with 1 leiter of water and my cranberry apple drink and let it sit in the fridge for about 45minutes and it seemed to help the taste alot. It went from un barable at about a 3/10 to somewhat alright and I'd say 6/10. Good enough for me to sip on during my 2hr class. Maybe the water was too warm and it was effecting the taste paired with only 20oz water????? Either way it tastes "BETTER" so Im not gonna complain.

The slight taste noticed in Poseidon really diminishes the longer it's mixed and stored. I mix up my morning dose the night before and drink it first thing when I wake up. Don't taste a thing.... DW trying mixing your cran/poseidon concoction the night before and then taking it to school with you. If it's an evening class mix it first thing in the morning and throw it in the fridge, then grab it when it's time for class. That should help a little.

Worked for me... Had to check the thread out as I have 2-900g of Poseidon and 1-415g Poseidon-BA that I am still slowly working on.

Figured it was something about not liking the initial Niacin flush... or anything but a mixing/taste isues. :)

Mmmm, niacin flush with a slight cranberry after taste. Sounds like heaven.:D

I gotta say I don't like it in just water. But in anything else I've tried so far, no problems. Still get the niacin flush, but that's a positive for me. Add BA and even better. Just mixed some up with some Lipton raspberry white tea to go packs... good stuff!

HAHA good, Poseidon mixes in everything I've ever had but this stuff.

Letting it sit does dull the taste however, enough to drink and not cringe.

You'll be VERY HAPPY with your purchase and im actually jelious of your truck load of poseidon

Yeah I need to slow my roll tho or this truck will get empty quick :D

Although not my personal favorite, Lipton has an apple cranberry white tea to go mix. I grabbed some last week when my local Ingles was out of raspberry. It was pretty pretty good with Poseidon in the mix.
 
Great thing about Poseidon-BA is that it really does not have a taste - You can just mix it with water and you're set!

The flush plus the beta-tingle = AWESOME!!!

I just got some Honey Tea ready to go pouches this week and started mixing with Poseidon. Good stuff, I think it complements it pretty darn well.
