What is the thickness of this? Is it thinner or thick to drink? I don't like thick protein shakes which are difficult to drink.

I don't like this product at all but the thickness depends on how much powder you add.

Personally, I think it is fairly thin. I always use 12 ounces of water and that produces a pretty good consistency. I agree with you about thick shakes. You can always increase the amount of liquid you put in.

I mix mine with 1℅ milk, which changes it. I have had thicker, but it isn't thin. Its similar to a gravy. If you mix yours with ter, it would be thinner...hope this helps!

I've always blended mine with water and ice, used two scoops of the mix, and found that thickness completely depended on amount of ice used. The more ice used, the thicker the drink. I also found that if milk is used, instead of water, it will have thicker consistency. (My brother blends it with no ice at all.) That said, just two scoops of the mix with 8-9 oz of water would be the consistency of a cup of coffee, in my opinion.

There are 150 Calories to this drink which has 11 fluid ounces. I don't take it to gain weight but rather because I needed the protein. My taste buds could not handle the sweet taste of it after my surgery but many love it's sweet flavor. So I add a cup in a half of milk to it to thin down the sweet taste but then it adds 12 more grams of protein to it. That boosts me up to 47 grams of protein and takes me about 5 - 10 minutes longer to drink and digest it. For Bariatric people protein is essential not only for the healing for the body to stay strong. We can't maintain or keep our vitamin levels up because our body can't regulate like it use to. So perhaps this drink might serve a different purpose for me than what you are trying to use it for. Protein though is essential for keeping everyone on track and perhaps if you are trying to use it to gain weight you might add some scoops of Ice Cream to it so that you are getting the protein but trying to increase the calories. Blend it together and you can create a great healthy shake. But don't forget when you add things that have a lot of sugar you might be defeating the healthiness. Sometimes we have to be patient while our body readjusts so to change a lifestyle of eating means waiting to see how the new adjustment works over weeks or months not days or minutes. There are protein shakes that have more calories and more Proteins but for me they didn't have the flavor that I was seeking. If you have to force it down then I probably would not make this a life style change. I have learned to love this one.

No idea if there is another taste or flavor. Also I dont know how to hide the flavor but I drink it with water. All protein shakes hve some kind of strange taste.

I am not exactly sure, it is thicker than water but it is still a liquid. Sorry that wasn't a real answer. You could check the companies website, I just looked it over but couldn't find an answer, maybe you'll have more luck.

I'm not sure if that is true, but I really like using it in my smoothie in the morning. My lactose intolerance stops me from being able to use the whey protein and this one isn't gritty and blends well. Enjoy!

I'm not sure exactly what you mean, but I think this is the best protein powder I've ever had. I do recommend using a blender bottle (shaker) to ensure its mixed well.

Yes, the mixture is not thick like a premade shake. You would need to be sure and shake it before drinking because I imagine it would not stay mixed well. I have not used the Nectar this way but have with the Isopure and it is foamy when mixed so I have to shake before drinking. The Nectar Chocolate Truffle is not foamy but the Fuzzy Navel is.

I use milk and I just mix to the consistency that I want a bit thinner at first as it will thicken , Hope this helped

Not really, it's a mass gainer so you're looking at 1200-1600 calorie shakes. If you take it with milk it's not far from muscle milk, but if you take it with water it taste kind of like that yahoo chocolate drink. I would still order it if you're looking to gain mass. Nothing beats that price for that taste.

It can probably come across as a little chalky. With that said, it is one of the best protein powders I've ever used (so far I have only bought the chocolate). I also never just drink it straight. I mix mine with a handful of frozen fruit and a couple of cups of leafy greens (kale, spinach, chard) and blend together. I think it's great.

It seems good to me.....I need extra protein in my diet and thought this was a good way to supplement it. I like that it is very easy to mix when I don't use my blender. I just add it to water in my glass and mix with a spoon. I tend to drink it after working out. I've had other protein shakes over the years and this one is low in sugar, easy to mix & has a good creamy taste. (before drinking after mixing, I let it sit for about a minute and it seems to get more creamy) I really like it.

I have been using this as a milk substitute in my moms smoothies and she can't tell the difference. I don't think it is any thicker than a liquid yogurt. Yes you can drink it after a meal.

Ensure has more carbs than premier protein. If you're looking for something that is filling and also has vitamins in it for a reasonable price, this could be your answer. I usually choose which ever shake is not over 30-40 protein but one that also has supplements along with it. Right now I'm using AdvanEdge shakes. They are all pretty good tasting and 11oz is very tolerable. Good luck

This has a thicker consistency than what you are describing. It is delicious though!

It is somewhat chalky, just like most proteins, if you want a yummy shake you either have to go to Wendy's or put some additives in. It isn't gritty at all. The texture depends on what you make it with; ex. milk-smoothest, water-runnier.

I get the Vanilla Bean so I can mix it with unsweetened cocao, strawberries or whatever flavor I want. I only mix it with water in my shaker cup and some ice and it mixes very well. The taste is good and not chalky at all. It's not thick, but when I want it thick, I put it in the freezer to make it like a shake. I does have a sweet taste, but it is not overly sweet.
