My review of Nectar: Apple Ecstasy

I ordered my Nectar from 1 fast 400, which provided prompt delivery (received it on 3rd business day) and they even through in a free MRP packet, so I was happy.

At first smell, the powder is great. Smells like a jolly rancher. I sampled some straight powder, which tasted rather nice, except it did end up being a gooey mass in my mouth.

Next is the drink itself. The worst thing about Nectar is the foam. I cannot explain how much freakin foam was left when I mixed Nectar with water in my shaker. I was very upset after this and eventually has to just pour the Nectar into a glass, where I was able to easily seperate the foam from the drink. Overall, the taste was great, I would drink something like this in the summer all day long (MINUS THE FOAM!).

Overall, Nectar is a great isolate and I'd recommend it to anybody looking for a change. If anybody has any recommendations on getting rid of the foam, I am open to thoughts.

Yeah my only choice is to let it settle to let the foam go down. Says on the container you can mix easily with a spoon, which won't work unless you can have a seizure on command.

All the whey isolates that I've used give me this problem so I 've learned to stir slowly or let it sit for a minute or two after mixing.

I've had the same problem with all whey isolates too...gotta let it sit. I have been using the Strawberry Kiwi for my PW shakes for awhile now. It really is the best tasting whey there is. I actually look forward to my PW shakes. Bump on Nectar

You say that like it's a big problem. If you let the shake sit for 2 minutes...no more foam.

Your going overboard with the shaker. Thats whats causing the excess foam. I mix mine easily with a spoon. I dont even have to stir for 10 seconds and its completely dissolved. No foam at all.

It foams because it is Whey Isolate. And Nectar mixes PERFECTLY with a spoon and glass...No foam excpt Fuzzy Navel has a froth to it Which is great.

Most places only do discount if you are ordering large quantities of the same product. Other throw in a shirt, free shipping, etc if it's over a certain dollar amount. Haven't found one that gives discounts based on dollar amount of order.


For those who have tried Carribean Cooler nectar and thought it sucked, there's a trick to that one. Blend it with crushed ice. Tastes just like a pina colada.
