Big shout out to ManimalPatB and the iforce team for allowing me to taste test a very unique protein flavor- Mint chocolate chip ice cream

I have tried countless flavors of protein but none of them have been mint flavored...needless to say I am stoked to give this a run. I am not a baker at all so my protein is either consumed in water, milk, greek yogurt, or proats. My first taste run will be in skim milk.

Protean has 25 grams a scoop of 100% whey and about 27 serving per 2lb tub. I cracked open the tub and there was a subtle mint and chocolate flavor but nothing too potent. Also was able to see the chocolate piece throughout the protein powder.

Threw in a scoop and a half with 12oz of skim milk in a shaker cup and everything mixed up nicely after about 20 seconds of shaking. Smell was still a subtle chocolate/mint scent but nothing too potent.

Taste-9/10 for my initial taste review. It was literally like drinking melted baskin robins mint and chocolate chip ice cream. It had a creamy consistency with a nice blend of milk chocolate and mint. It also had a cream taste too it which I definitely liked. i am not a big fan of chocolate proteins and this did not have an overwhelming chocolate flavor to it. It hit the sweet spot for sure. My 3 year old son ended up drinking about a fourth of it and was mad when i finished it lol. Only reason I gave it a 9/10 was because I am not sure how well it will sit with my morning oatmeal but I may end up adjusting the flavor rating if it hits the spot like it did in shake form.

mixability-10/10 No issues whatsoever. Used a shaker cup and it blended fine after about 20 seconds of shaking.

picture are below- had a subtle green color after mixing.

I'll be doing that soon, myself. Will try with regular, vanilla, and chocolate (all CarbMaster) milks.
 
In on this:)
 
1/2 point (approximately) update:

For the most part I have been using this one time a day with skim milk. I used it a couple times with water and it was ok but much better with milk. I also tried it in proats and it was pretty good. It's not something I would eat every morning but it is nice to change things up flavor wise.

mixed in water overall rating-7/10- It was definitely drinkable with a medium consistency. Most of the time I drink my protein in 2-3 big gulps and don't really care about taste. Mixed in water it isn't something i would not sip on too much but just down it to meet macros.

Skim milk-9/10- same sentiment from my initial review in every aspect. It really hits the sweet tooth. Mixability is great after shaking for about 30 seconds. 1 scoop in 8-10 oz of milk or 2 scoops in 16-20 oz is the sweet spot for me. Nice thick and drinkable consistency. Literally tastes like I am drinking a milk shake.

proats-7.5/10- Defintely enjoyable and will keep in my flavor rotation. Only reason I gave it a 7.5 is because I can't see myself wanting it more than 2-3x a week in the morning but it will have it's place in my rotation for sure.

here is a pic. The bowl color kind of throws it off with the green. I promise it's not guacamole lol

definitely worth checking this out though-especially if you're a fan of mint
 
I am not the biggest proats fan, Idk why.

BUT

your mixture looks delicious
 
Final review- sorry for the slight delay as i was working through the tub :) I will be the first person to admit I am boring with my protein in regards to what I do with it. Don't cook or do much of anything besides drink it in shakes. Good news is that this protean hits the spot when it comes to my sweet tooth. I drank it every couple days with milk usually and it was great at curbing some late night sweet cravings. Nice creamy thick consistency with a nice blend of mint chocolate chip. I added ice cubes a few times to give it more of a shake feel but most of the time it wasn't necessary. Overall i was very pleased with this flavor. I would purchase this with my own money in the future it was that good. The only "downside" is that I don't see myself drinking it 3x a day; with that being said, there are almost no proteins I can tolerate consistently without some change up.

Taste-9/10- It taste just like mint chocolate chip ice cream that has been melted. No single flavor stood out but the blend of cream, mint, and chocolate hit the spot.

consistency/mixture- 10/10-great in water or milk. No need for anything other than a shaker cup to get it blended. It produces a medium thickness and consistency which really adds to the ice cream realness imo.

overall-9/10- definitely try this at some point if your a mint and chocolate chip ice cream fan. you will not be disappointed. Nice ingredient profile and a superb taste. Cost is also competitive for similar proteins in the 2lb range.

Thanks again for the opportunity iforce!
