Anyone have lightly flavored BCAAs they enjoy?

I can’t stand super strong flavors I just like a light/subtle taste

I just got Blackstone Labs Resurgence Pina Colada flavour. It's very light even with 8-10oz of water.

I would say just keep adding more water until the ratio of aminos to water creates the light taste you are looking for.

as long as it's not bulk aminos I haven't really had one I didn't like....of course some I like more than others but nothing that I said "oh no, I'm not drinking that"

preworkouts on the other hand

I agree I stay away from super sweet ones but like stated just add more water till you have your desired sweetness. I usually do just one scoop with a full shaker cup of water.

There are several. 360 pump, mr. Supps, breach by RedCon1. The taste is usually not the issue.

100% agree, a bit pricey for a bcaa but it does have nootropics but that pina colada in on point!

USP Labs Modern BCAA

Scivation Xtend, Gaspari AminoLast, and APS Chain'd Reaction (rocket pop specifically) are some of the best tasting I've had.

Nutrabolics - Anabolic State. I’ve enjoyed their lemon/lime flavour.

That said, save your money and just get your BCAAs from protein! >35g of protein per serving will give you enough BCAAs to trigger protein synthesis and recovery.

I bought my BCAAs as an experiment and currently use them when I suspect my protein serving was slightly non-optimal, or to add some flavour to my WPI.

Use an EAA product. BCAA'a are a waste of money. Especially if you are meeting your protein macro's each day via whole foods and protein powders.

Cellucor AlphaAmino pink lemonade. Freakin’ amazing. Solid profile of EAA’s, BCAA’s, and Betaine Anhydrous and dehydrated coconut as part of their endurance and hydration component.

Alpha amino is a proprietary formula, you have no clue what aminos your getting, probably 90% taurine since it’s the cheapest, not saluted.

Well I’ll be damned! I just looked at my tub and what do ya know....
I probably won’t be spending $30 for a 15 day supply anymore. How did I not catch that? I apologize for my ill advised product suggestion and thanks for the call out!

Good ol cellucor. I know some guys that swear by c4. Always makes me wonder why? They get tricked into thinking its good from marketing or something? C4 never did crap for me

a coworker asked about my preworkouts, I proudly bragged about my good dmaa babies, he gave me the sorry look and mentioned c4...I acted surprised and told him I will certainly give it a try!

Wouldn't that also contradict using an EAA?

I really like the taste of IntraMax. Although it isn’t really promoted as a BCAA product, it contains that and much more. I enjoy using it intra and post workout.

They sure have. Preworkouts have come a long way as well. I remember back in the day when i first started working out i got some N.O.XPLODE. Took some convincing to get my mom to let me get that and some creatine cause she thought it was steroids. Anyways yeah. It took some resolve to choke that stuff down

Well I hit my protein within about 5grams everyday so I guess I don’t need BCAAs! I guess it’s all the marketing and stuff that makes you think you need it. I drink it while working out but I honestly just prefer plain old water haha

Tri-Pep is the best tasting BCAA product I’ve ever tried. Peptide bonding got rid of the nasty bitter taste. I use it intra-workout.
