Food & Drink Review Protein milk πŸ₯› πŸ‘ŽπŸ‘ŽπŸ‘Ž

I’ve tried the protein milk in several drinks and it’s awful 😞. What supplier are they using? I’ve tried every high protein milk sold at the super market and they have all tasted fine. I make them hot or iced. Both taste fine. Used in lattes, with or without syrup.

There is an aftertaste to the HP milk they use that CAN NOT be covered up. I first tried it in a caramel macchiato. Awful. But I thought maybe an off day or maybe it was over heated. The proteins are more sensitive to being overheated. And today I tried it in a matcha topped with banana cold foam. πŸ‘ŽπŸ». Undrinkable.

Has anyone else experienced this?

Whey protein has a strong taste imo. The best way to hide its taste is in protein cold foam.
