Can this be added to my protein powder almond milk smoothie in the morning? Would mixing it with almond milk be a disaster?

I use this product with a vanilla protein powder, buttermilk and apple juice in a smoothie. I like it. It is not "wow delicious" but it is ok. I hope this helps you...

Since it's a powder you can definitely mix it in with anything, but it's more of a fruit and veggie thing that really won't taste good with almond milk. What I use is another product they sell - RAW Meal - works excellent with Almond Milk and the chocolate is very tasty (http://www.gardenoflife.com/Products-for-Life/Foundational-Nutrition/RAW-Meal.aspx) They also sell a RAW Protein powder you might want to look into.

That's how I make my smoothie with almond milk it does not harm the taste of the smoothie in my opinion. Plus it adds nutritional value.

I think it should be fine. I mixed it with orange juice and that was a disaster! I now blend it with a little distilled water and take it as a quick shot. This product is very earthy tasting so it's easier to drink it fast. It may change the taste of your protein powder smoothie mixture, if you don't mind that then give it a try.

I mix it with bananas or apples and walnuts or almonds. I don't mind it by its self with almond milk or nonfat milk. I have found that it mixes better in the blender than in a shaker and the longer you blend it the creamier it gets. I have more energy and it's better than not eating at but I haven't lost any weight so far and I exercise regularly.

Blend or stir protein drink with 8 oz of water. I use almond or soy milk instead.

It did mix well in my blender! I mixed it with almond milk and a banana. Sometimes with blueberries and strawberries. Yummy and filling. There is a warning on the label that I researched though something about cancer. I sent it back after I started getting hives on my face. I have not had hives since then. Not sure if it was related.

I have added it to my yogurt smoothies with success. I am super lactose intolerant and can not seem to tolerate any dairy unless it has been treated first. I stirred in about 10 drop (a large container size) and waited a couple days before using it. I had to stir it a few times a day too because it is a lot thicker than say milk or cream.

Yes to first question. I make smoothies with many nut varieties (from Costco) and it works great. I do not know much about making almond milk, follow the recipe.

Yes you can if you use the protein shakes in place of a meal. I use two scoops of protein powder with Almond Milk in a shaker cup for breakfast. It is also good post work out.

Best protein powder I have found, but sorry, it is like having cottage cheese in your coffee. I just tried it (just for you) in very hot coffee. I have always used it in blended protein shakes with raw eggs and other ingredients that provide a thicker consistency. I pour the protein into the already moving blender or it will stick to the sides. I recommend the product, but I'll stay with the shakes.

Yes sir! I only mixed it once with milk, the rest of the time it was water. It's got a slightly chunky (tiny pieces of product) consistency, but that's the BCAA crystals I believe. You should be all good!

Hi, I mix it with fresh fruit, almond milk, add to smoothies or simply with almond milk (I don't drink milk, but you can use regular milk).

You can mix it with milk and heating it may allow it to blend better. It's a bit of a challenge getting it to mix and the powder can be messy but the taste is good.

There are 90 calories in the protein for two rounded scoops (suggested serving size)... What you blend with it, of course, impacts your calorie count. If you use skim milk or almond milk, there are going to be less calories in your shake versus mixing with whole milk. Also, if you add fresh fruits or veggies versus peanut butter (but don't get me wrong this is a GREAT option for a lo of reasons too!) there will be a significant difference in calories. Hope this helps!

I usually mix it as a banana milk shake. Just add milk, a banana, the powder and some flax seeds.

Very well. As with most protein powders, it does have a tendency to cling to the sides if you our it in while it's not running then turn it in (our maybe that's my blender). It doesn't settle, however, and quickly mixes in with water, soy milk, almond milk and coconut. Have not tried with cow milk, but that typical mixes even better

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 use almond or coconut milk and stir by hand. I know an athlete who uses one of those little protein shake mixers, you can usually find one for $15.00 or less.

The consistency is comparable to that of Whey Protein. The powder itself is light, fluffy, and airy. The stuff mixes quick and easy with a magic bullet type of blender. I've always used vanilla flavored almond milk as the mixing liquid and that's pretty tasty, you can handle mixing with water if you had to but why is the question.
