Do you mix your protein with water or milk ?

[Srfrbum]

What do you feel the differences you get are between the two ?
Which one do you feel tastes better ?
Discuss.

I mix with water to control calories, but it tastes better with milk, especially Silk Light Vanilla (my favorite).

Water = post-workout especially on a cut
Milk = before bed or cereal

Milk. I use Syntrax Nectar Chocolate Truffle and it tastes damn good with milk. The milk also adds some more protein, calcium, vitamin D, etc. It's possible that it slows absorption, but I doubt it's significant enough for me to care.

Milk. Tastes better, lactase increases absorption of protein & creatine (which I put in my protein shakes).

Water. Never tried milk, I imagine it would taste good but I honestly love the taste of it with water (generic brand isolate chocolate).

Milk, added protein and it is good for you. Plus it tastes better. Add in some PB and a banana and it tastes amazing.

Mixed with water. I get gassy when I drink milk.

Milk. Tastes horrible with water.

skim milk, I dont get enough calcium anyway, so this is great for that, some extra protein, and some flavor.

I don't drink milk, so water

milk, need calories. Thanks for reminding me that I need to buy some protein

I mix it with whatever I kind of feel like that morning...water, Gatorade, milk, juices, etc. Gatorade normally post workout for the carbs.

Milk. Water just didn't do it for me when I tried. My shake is my morning meal, so there's a lot of other stuff in it. I typically don't drink/use milk at any other time of the day, so I need it for the calcium.

I've been using ON 100% Whey Banana Cream flavor in my shake lately with orange juice, strawberries and a banana and it's really good.

Milk for sure! It tastes way better, gives more calories, and some calcium.

The stuff I'm using now tastes disgusting (strawberry banana smoothy). I picked it up after a recommendation from a friend. I mix it with water because it's easier to chug that way and I don't feel like throwing up.

Water when drinking a shake immediately after working out.

Milk any other time.

Skim milk. Low cal, better taste, and added protein.
