Is this good in cold milk? I like a strong chocolate, moderately sweet. Does it mix well?

I have never mixed it with cold milk , my local coffee house uses this type of dark chocolate , it is very concentrate , it may be a little much for cold milk , I would recommend buying a smaller amount in case you don't like it . I love mixing it with hot coffee .

The mix-ins are for when you use it with milk. It has a sweet cream flavor without mix-ins. You can use cocoa powder if you like chocolate. I don't use milk to mix it. I use "toddler" juices for the low calories and mix in no sugar frozen fruit. A friend of mine uses Sunny D to mix it with the fruit. Find what way tastes better to you. I used one mix-in for two shakes because I thought it was too much if I used one packet per drink. Also, I don't do a rounded scoop per the instructions. Instead, I use a level scoop. If you like the flavor packets, you can buy a mixture of extra packets or a package of one flavor. PS - Almond milk has less calories than fat free milk!

I make mine with 10 oz milk, 3-4 ice cubes (I use a personal blender) and sometimes I'll add a drop or two of mint extract. It tastes pretty good that way. I have made it a time or two with just plain water and it is too think and drinkable but not great. I have also heard that adding a tsp or two of PB2 powder gives it a nice chocolate peanut butter flavor so maybe try that too?

I use vanilla if I want to put some frozen fruit, ice and water in my Ninja. It is so good! Like soft serve ice cream. I use chocolate just with water. I also like to heat up 8 oz water and drink it like hot chocolate. Just don't heat water over 145* or it will clump up. This is a very quality protein at a very good price.

I don't know if it does mix well in cold water, not actually tried it. As to drinking it iced, not tried either.

Well I liked the chocolate the best initially when mixed with just water but this morning I mixed 2 scoops vanilla 8 oz water 4 oz vanilla almond milk and some ice cubes in a mixer bottle and it was much better. If mixed with just 8 oz water it is very thick and frothy with a bad after taste, this mixture seemed to help and I also lost about 5 lbs this week with restricted calories and 45 min walk every other day.

I don't have my container anymore-but I have issues with milk - I mixed mine with ice water and had no troubles. Taste just like really good chocolate milk.

I have not tried adding it to coffee or hot chocolate mix, but I do add it to my cold instant breakfast and to my oatmeal and have had no problems with clumping. It makes my beverage or skim milk thicker and more like whole milk.

It definitely works with cold drinks. But it is pretty small (the whipping end is about 3/4 inch across), so I don't think it would work well for mixing anything thicker than milk. I'm not sure what kind of mixtures you had in mind. Hope that's helpful!

It works best if the chocolate is cold, cut in smaller pieces. Pulse until you reach the consistency you need.

This does not blend well in milk. I would order the cacao liquor/paste product (made by the same company).

Ive never used it in cold milk...maybe if you whisked the snot out of it, it would take cold milk. Golden milk is the best way to take it, and tastes good:)

I mix it with Blue Diamond Almond milk, the sweetened vanilla is my favorite. I don't think its that bad...

Hi Dolly what would you like to know? It's pretty easy. I use milk and powered chocolate, push the button and it spins and mixes and automatically stops whe the milk is hot and ready to drink at the perfect temp. Some folks actually cut up Hershey chocolate bars and drop in for added flavor. It's a great little machine and my grandkids love it. Write me back if you have specific questions. Merry Christmas. Enjoy!

Judy, I always mix the Ghiradelli Chocolate powder with cold press coffee (using the Toddy system) and ice. It makes a wonderful blended drink that's comparable and often better than the chain coffee stores. Enjoy!

I mix it in with whole milk - one scoop per sippy cup. It ends up having the consistency of melted ice cream.

I liked the chocolate. I would make it with hot water and almond milk in the mornings and it was pretty close to hot cocoa taste.
