I originally bought it from Boots because it had a bit of a discount, and I was a sucker for its female orientated marketing and design. I also liked the fact that it said it was a 'plant and protein blend' and dairy, gluten and sugar free. It also said you don't have to take it after exercising, it can be taken at any time. So I thought I'd give it a go, I was only able to buy chocolate flavour. The first time I tried it, I followed the instructions of mixing it with ice, cold water. Oh. My. God. It was not a pleasant experience - very strange tasting and overly powdery. I forced it down, and could only knock it back like a shot! I then made protein balls mixed with peanut butter, and I enjoyed eating these. And then finally, I made the protein drink with milk instead of water. This was much better, although half way through I wasn't enjoying it as much. So I am thinking next time, I'll just make half of the quantity!
I'm determined to finish the packet, but would be interested in buying another brand to see if it would be more palatable.
