I like chocolate protein shakes, but I don't like having to buy 2 tubs of a particular product - 1-vanilla based and 1-chocolate based.

I started using Hershey's, and it makes a great chocolate shake, without alot of extra sugar or calories, and it does have antioxidants:

I typically add a heaping teaspoon. Some may want more or less, but it definatley simplifies your shopping, and gives you more options. A base whey vanilla powder should be all you need.
Throw some into your Isolyze or whatever product you use. I'm going to try it in some other products as well - perhaps some chocolate protein cookies, or pancakes.

Anyone else having some good recepies or ideas, I'd love to hear them.

I use Green & Blacks but I guess its the same thing really. I don't know why more supplement companies don't licence the cocoa from either company to put in their shakes. I'm sure "hershey's flavoured whey" would go down well!

I like the idea but licensing the name (for example) "Hershey's" would make it cost prohibitive for any supp co.. They make some coin but they're no Nestlé

I like adding a packet of Swiss Miss Hot Chocolate to my protein. Makes it a real treat
you can also adding some splenda to your protein or vanilla extract that makes it taste
really great too! I really like the flavor that it adds and I think its great!
