Syntrax Nectar

[christie]

Is this stuff any good? I've been drinking the PVL whey coolers but I want a little change....Any flavour suggestions? Or is this stuff yucky? I don't like the thick shake like protein. I like the cooler type proteins. Any suggestions?

[Pandora]

lol.. I need to do commercials for them.

Syntrax Nectar is the only protein powder I will drink. Period. It's all great except the green apple. Green apple is nasty.

Tastes like koolaid and no after taste. No carbs, no fat. 23g protein per scoop. I highly recommend it.

Well that was easy! SOLD :lol:

Does it mix well? Sometimes my pvl coolers clump and I have to end up eating the extra mush :barf:

[Pandora]

Mixes perfectly. :)

[nschultz]

Syntrax is really good. I like the lemonade flavor. It mixes pretty well, a bit clumpy, but the taste is so good it doesn't really matter. I highly recommend it.

[christie]

What flavour is your fav? :)

[Pandora]

It is not clumpy at all if you mix it with a fork.

Also, it was designed to be like pixie stix powder... you can eat the powder right from the container and it tastes awesome. And it is not gritty at all.

Caribbean Cooler
Crystal Sky
Fuzzy Navel
Lemon Tea
Roadside Lemonade
Strawberry Kiwi

What should I start out with?

[Pandora]

Cherry Berry is the best, imo. But I've not been able to find it in ages. Fuzzy navel is good. Lemonade is good.. and iced tea is actually good, too. Honestly, I like all of them except green apple.

[christie]

Strawberry Kiwi sounds good..hmm

[Pearly]

Late to the party-
But yeah, I agree. Best pp ever.

I love the Peach and the Lemonade. The carribean one (IMO) tasted like ass.

Mmmmmm so good.

Carribean cooler is fruit punch, basically. (This is the only one I have not had.. this and some weird coffee one)

Crystal sky is blue (weird) and really tastes just like a blue pixy stick (again, weird.. lol), but is so good.

Strawberry Kiwi is good, too.

Just pick one.. :D They're all pretty good. I'd recommend maybe strawberry kiwi first or fuzzy navel (mmmm.. like OJ!)

[straitshooter]

i like fuzzy navel. but it is very sweet so beware!

[christie]

Thanks!! It's so damn expensive that it's hard to decide which to get. I think I'll get lemonade, fuzzy navel and strawberry kiwi!!!

[Pandora]

I don't find it that expensive at all. Maybe it's because it is all that I buy. I just work two tubs of it a month into my grocery budget, though.

[christie]

Well 2lbs of it will cost me $37cdn :( I mean it's not bad but thats a lot if you end up hating it and not drinking it :lol:

[LUVPINK222]

I love Crystal Sky and the fuzzy navel! :love:

[GymBean]

I bought some last week and love it. The only flavor they had was lemonade so I didn't have to choose, but I'm excited to try the other flavors.

And on a related note, I'd like to try making a lemonade slush with it. I'm thinking lemonade pp, water, ice, and maybe some frozen raspberries all blended together. Has anyone tried something like this?

[Aslan]

I've got Strawberry Kiwi. It's the only one I've tried so far and I love it. It's so nice to drink a cold fruity drink now that the weather is getting warmer. As Pandora says, it mixes easily and has no aftertaste.
I made a slushy version the other day and it came out pretty good - just added the water, some ice cubes, and a couple of fresh strawberries. Yum!

[northernstar]

I've gotta put my .02 in, I LOVE Nectar! I hated protein powder until I tried this. I would definetly recommend it, it is awesome!

[gymgurl]

I love this stuff, have tried every flavor. Right now my favorite is cherry and cyrstal sky, but I go through phases. I used to like green apple but it got to be to much for me for a while, but now I'm craving it again. I'm not so crazy about the strawberry kiwi though, although I know other people really like it. I love mixing it in cottage cheese too, soooo yummy.

[christie]

Thanks girls! I got strawberry kiwi, crystal sky and fuzzy navel. I was going to get the lemonade but it made me think of that crystal light lemonade and that junk gives me heartburn :lol: I hope that I like them :D

[mcv]

Pandora -I just found the cherry berry flavor on A1 Nutrition's web site. They do charge more than other sites for it though - so I guess it depends on how good that flavor is. :p

[scaredlittleannie]

I really like the lemonade. I want to try the Fuzzy Navel but I had a bad peach-flavored experience with some Whey Gourmet.

[Pandora]

Fuzzy navel doesn't taste peach to me at all. It tastes more like OJ, I think.

Thanks for the info!! :clap:

[scaredlittleannie]

If it tastes more like OJ - that sounds really good actually - I will definitely try it now.
Thanks!

[Brandi]

I may try these buggers...

[Mizuno]

I have strawberry kiwi, roadside lemonade, fuzzy navel and a bunch of sample packs of the tea one and the cappucino (the best)!!!
It is wonderful!!!!!!

[healthnut]

I actually like the Caribbean Cooler flavor. It's like a pina colada. Mixes well too.

[christie]

Fuzzy Navel did taste a lot like OJ. You really don't have to add much water to these or else they taste really watered down. I still like my PVL Peach Whey cooler better :oops: I wish I could find something with the consistancy of the Nectar because it mixes great but with the taste of the PVL. That would be the best combo ever. I guess you can't have both :lol:
