And the coffee tastes unbelievably real (maybe because they have coffee as a listed ingredient!). I’ve heard many people say it’s nauseating to drink. Although I don’t think that, it’s worth noting because I never heard anyone say this about other flavors. Banana Cream is a hidden gem. It’s not so popular. And not many people know about it. But it tastes so real and authentic.

We compared this flavor to Double Rich Chocolate, which tastes like a spoonful of plain cocoa — some may like that, though. Extreme Milk Chocolate tasted sweeter and richer.They taste similar, but Extreme Milk Chocolate, as you can tell by its name, takes chocolate to a whole other level.

Chocolate Coconut takes the #5 spot for one reason — it’s not a strong flavor. But it’s tasty, it definitely lives up to its name, and can be mixed with just about anything. If you’re looking for a vanilla flavor, go with Optimum Nutrition’s French Vanilla Creme ( Review) which is much better. Final Words The chocolate is similar to another Optimum Nutrition flavor — Extreme Milk Chocolate — which happens to be on this list too (and is damn good!).By the time you finish reading this, you’ll know exactly which flavor tastes so good and addicting that you’ll want to hand-write me a Thank You note. Not all athletes are fans of mixing their milk with whey. Plus, in our experience, milk (especially two percent or whole milk) can add a lot of richness to a protein powder, elevating the overall flavor. So, to get an objective taste, we ranked our flavors based on how they tasted only with water. Aftertaste Yes, it contains artificial flavors and sweeteners. The sweeteners are sucralose (a.k.a. Splenda®) and/or acesulfame potassium (a.k.a. Ace K), depending on the flavor. However, the company has a line of “natural whey” in Chocolate, Strawberry, and Vanilla flavors. Is Gold Standard Whey good for weight loss? What you can expect from this flavor is a very sweet milk chocolate. Almost two times the sweetness as Double Rich Chocolate. And because of how sweet it is, you don’t even need milk. This isn’t your usual boring chocolate. Double Rich Chocolate has a rich chocolatey flavor. Super creamy, milky, and flavorful. Almost like drinking chocolate milk.

Probably the most talked about flavor of Optimum Nutrition. But don’t get it confused with Double Rich Chocolate. These flavors must taste like what it says. If it’s chocolate, it has to taste exactly like chocolate. Same goes for other flavors. This is rare in protein powders because they almost never taste like how it’s labeled.

This was my first ever Optimum Nutrition flavor. I liked it. If you mix it with milk and a banana, you’ll instantly have a real strawberry banana milkshake. It didn’t make the list, however, because it does get boring after a while. After mixing the flavor with both milk and water, we were happy to find that they both tasted delicious. No matter the base, Extreme Milk Chocolate maintained its decadent flavor, unlike some of the other flavor options. We also didn’t notice any separation, which is a huge plus. High quality whey protein isolate and whey protein concentrate blend. Isolate is the purest form of whey protein that exists.
