Texture Trouble?

Sometimes it can be a little difficult to get the shakes down. Here's what we do:

I use a very little bit of water (maybe 1/3 cup), then my 2 scoops Classic, 1/2 scoop FibRestore, and 1/4 scoop Innergize. I just chug it down. I used to put a piece of a banana (frozen works best), but since I'm taking 3-4 shakes a day, I've just gotten to the place where I guzzle to get it over with!

Milo uses one scoop of Classic and 1 scoop of Kids Now (Vanilla) in 1 cup of milk.

Madison does 2/3 cup milk, 1 scoop Chocolate Kids Now, 1/2 scoop Soysentials.

Lillian's recipe is 2/3 cup milk, 1 scoop Vanilla Kids Now and 1/4 scoop Soysentials.

Ella and Vivien are 2/3 cup milk, 1 scoop Chocolate.

We sometimes do 'add-ins' to make things more interesting. Here's a few ideas:

Orange juice with Vanilla Kids Now and some ice - sort of like an "Orange Julius". Yum.

Several ideas with Chocolate Kids Now - a scoop of Peanut Butter (Viv's fave), a piece of frozen banana, a squirt of chocolate syrup, strawberries. . . possibilities are endless if you like chocolate!

With Classic, it's easy to make a delicious fruit shake. You can add a little vanilla yogurt and fruit, orange juice and ice.

We're having a major heat wave in the D and the girls are LOVING popsicles made out of Innergize. Just mix a scoop of your favorite flavor of Innergize (available in Lemon, Orange and Cool Punch) with water - however strong you like it, pour into popsicle molds or paper Dixie cups with a stick, freeze, and ENJOY!
