Milk shake mix

[Blue Hills]

Can anyone recommend a good one?

I know you can buy ready made milkshakes but I have the impression that they are overpriced.

Seems more sensible to mix your own with your own milk.

But a lot of the mixes I see (and there aren't that many) seem to either have sugar as the primary ingredient or have milk powder (FFS) in the list of ingredients.

Is this to drink at home, or to take out on rides and mix while you are out?

If it is to be consumed at home, why not just add the fruit of your choice to milk and blend it into a fruity, milky drink?

I use 1/2 pint of full milk with about the same plain yoghurt, blended with a banana (in pieces), and berries of your choice (raspberries, strawberries, blackcurrants). Add more milk if you want it less smoothie-like.

I would not use dairy milk as studies have shown it's really not that good for you.

If you are talking about a recovery drink, then I'd recommend:

Handful of spinach or some brocolli, 3-4 bananas, tablespoon of oats, tablespoon of chia seeds, tablespoon of flaxseeds, 4-5 brazil nuts, and some soy milk blend it all up and drink - it's delicious.

Yes. That was the culprit I had in mind. Tastes nice of course but not all it might seem.

To drink at home after a ride as an alternative to opening a beer.
Don't have a mixer/processor at the moment after giving it away.
