Got some from Bulk Supplements. I've gotten many other unflavored powders and none have ever tasted this bad. LMAO.

I thought I could put them in a bottle with electrolyte mix, but that was a no go. It was horrendous.

I've seen some folks use gel packs like Blate Plates and you just take down the 5g once or twice in a workout vs trying to dry shoot it.

Anyone make their own EAA drinks that aren't awful?
 
There really isn’t a way to make our gym supps not taste bad without over complication.

You’re tasting the extraction process end result. That chemical taste will usually overpower regardless. Pepto pro is a great product and it tastes like a nightmare. 🙂

I've had some flavored EAAs from Panda and a few from some Amazon brands and they aren't too bad. Didn't think the unflavored with be as bad as they are.

Maybe a shit ton of zero calorie water mix

Completely agree. Unflavored is usually best in protein. Your best bet is mixing it with a preworkout or Gatorade imho. Gatorade helps me down some products, as you said electrolyte/zero calorie mix.

Yeah I tried an electrolyte packet and that was a no go. Maybe some zero cal Gatorade that is heavy flavor
 
I got 5lb tub of dymatize fruity pebbles on discount which I absolutely hate. Even for ninja creami purposes i don't like it.

I mix with with ghost lemon crush electrolytes and they completely cover up the taste. Even when doing something like 30g protein to 2-3g of electrolytes makes it taste good. They have an insanely strong taste, I mix 5g in 1.5L water bottle and it's still sweet even for sweetness fiend like me.
 
I just put some lemon in my water with my EAA and am good to go. Taste takes second place to me at most when compared to my goals.

I use 40g of them intra every day. Just use mio or kool aid. Dilute in plenty fluids. I drink 2L intra and mix it in there.

Might be part of the problem. I put 10g in 20ml of water. Maybe need to do reduce that quantity. Thx

Oh yeah, put 5g into a scope of lemon crush+20oz of water and tasted nothing.

Check this out if you’re wanting intra electrolytes. 2.5x the servings and much better electrolyte content only $5 more or so.

If using pre or intra, I've found 10g of Bulk Supplements EAA's mixed with 25g orange Gatorade powder to not be so bad. Certainly disguised the rank taste of the EAA'S.

I think I might have fucked up and not put any drink mix in with the EAAs. So it tasted nasty lol. I've been able to mix 5-10g fine with an electrolyte scoop

I tried drinking the EAA'S straight before with nothing added. Holy shit it was awful.

1 scoop or 2 if I’m hungry. I train early morning I eat some Greek yogurt with some peanut butter about half an hour before I go.

If you have a digital scale, which I'm sure you do, weigh it instead. Don't go by the scoop. You'd be surprised in the difference between the two. I weigh everything.
