What are some good powdered drink mixes?

I'm tired of brown rice and chicken though 2nd month in.

Oh God I know that feeling. Mix it up a bit with some good meaty dishes like a good Chili with lots of beans, put some cottage cheese on top (excellent source of cassein).

Diabetes says hello. There is substantial amount of evidence recently that suggests over intake of sugar, be it even from fruit, is really bad for you. Like en route to overtaking heart disease and cancer as the leading cause of death.

The whey protein smoothies are also packed with tonnes of crap sugar fillers in order to gain weight.

I buy my own pure natural Whey, not the mixed crap... you are right about the sugars though, it´s just so darn addictive and so easy to make.. Should probably be making some more broccoli shakes ughhh

However I do stregth training 4 times a week, swim 1 mile and do Pilates twice a week. And I usually do some hiit training for max EPOC after lifting. So I can burn of the sugar pretty easy.

Yes I do have it pretty well under control he he... Once I bought pure natural Cassein, the whey is like tiramisu compared to that shit.

It's not quite what you asked for in the OP, but it is a healthier alternative to fizzy drinks I've adopted: http://www.alpro.com/uk/hazelnut

I can't get enough of the stuff!

Erm...what's a powdered drink? Is that some kind of powder that you mix with water to make a flavoured drink?

But yeah, like some others said I guess: tea. You can make iced tea and there's a decent amount of caffeine in it. Otherwise, water, you can't really beat water.

Yes.

Tang, koolaid, crystal light, and Mio are good.

Not sweet enough for my tastes though, so some Splenda gets added, along with some flavourless fibre mix.

Nesquick

or

Milo

No and no.

I can't drink tons of water a day like some people can. I need something with some flavour.

Tea is alright but its an acquired taste and one I'm not a huge fan of, but I guess I could try drinking it more. I know my brother loves making his own sun tea.

You can but you have to get used to it. Once you do it becomes your favorite drink...because it's your body's favorite drink from the day you were born. Best advice would be to cut out all that stuff with sugar and fake sugar. But if you really really feel you need it and just refuse to stop drinking it, I'd say go with crystal light or something similar to transition into water, or flavored waters, or iced tea like others have mentioned. But fake sugar is terrible for you and sugar drinks are obviously not good for you either so my vote is still to just drop all of it and force down water until you love it, lol.

I'm fairly sure my favourite drink at that time was exceedingly fresh milk.

Koolaid not sweet enough, jeebus man.

Crystal Light is personally my favourite.
