Does anyone knows of a comparable substitute for the IP Chocolate Mix drink? Thanks!

[starapple]

One that is more cost effective?

Thank you!

is there a substitute without sucralose? I was looking at the Sun Warrior Chocolate protein powder. It's sweetened with stevia instead of splenda/sucralose.

Don't know about that one. Just got mine from nashua nutrition so I will be trying those this week. I got the proti diet and one other. MUCH cheaper!

I use Chocorite both the chocolate and peanut butter flavor from Netrition.com. It has 150 cals, 8 carbs, 5 fiber, and 24 protein. It does have sucralose, but it is listed last in the ingredients so it is not one of the main sweeteners. It is about 11.50 a bag. The bags have 11 servings. It tastes wonderful!

I tried this one:

and didn't think it was as good as IPs chocolate drink mix. Someone on here said the Hot Cocoa mix was a closer substitution (just drink it cold!) but I haven't gotten that one yet. (Plan to get it with my next Nashua order).

I also tried the EAS AdvantEdge Chocolate Fudge RTD from WalMart -- that wasn't a good substitute (taste-wise) for me, either.

I'm happy to listen to other options, too - I'd love to find a chocolate drink mix alternative that I liked!

I, too, would love to find a substitute.
I have tried a bunch of individual packets from Vitamin Shoppe, many sweetened with stevia, and honestly they were all unacceptable. Mostly way too sweet and they don't thicken up "right". I haven't found anything with the same ingredient list.

I loooove the proti-thin hot chocolate. It tastes like regular hot chocolate, and is good as a cold drink too.

I LOVE Sun Warrior protein powders! I was using them long before starting IP!

I use GNC Pro PerformanceŽ AMP Amplified Wheybolic Extreme 60™ - Chocolate. I use 1 scoop as a serving which comes out to about $1 per serving. Each scoop has 90 calories, 20 grams protein, 2.3 grams carbs, and .3 grams fat. I like it with a little sea salt mixed in.

P.S. This one does contain sucralose.

Has anyone tried to heat these alternatives? I like it as a "hot chocolate" but know sometime when changing the temperature things can get kinda gross!

I've had the EAS Carb AdvantEDGE chocolate RTD warmed up, and I've also added it to hot coffee to make a mocha. Yum!

I have been using them for a few months but only just started IP yesterday. I usually blend mine with ice and don't just use a shaker. Tastes a lot better blended.

Have you used Sun Warrior on IP and had good results?
I'm wondering if there's any reason not to use it.
