Nutrition on the go!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Carnation Nutritional Powder Drink Mix in Rich Chocolate mixes well in cold liquid. I mixed it with milk and it was nice and smooth. It tasted like chocolate with a little bit of a protein aftertaste. I felt full after drinking it and was satiated for a while. It comes packed in a multipack with each serving in an individual envelope. It’s so easy just to grab a packet, pour it in a bottle with some milk and go!

Great ingredients, okay flavor.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the ingredients and health benefits from this. I feel like the chocolate taste could be a little more, it was a little on the bland side. I did have some issues getting all the chunks out but will try adding little at a time next time to see if that helps. Overall, this is a great product for a powdered drink.

Great tasting

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This carnation mixed berry drink is delicious. I drink this in the morning and it gives me the boost I need without eating a big meal that fills me up. Carnation breakfast drink is a great tasting way to get a healthy start to the day.

try the Cookies N' Creme

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had to prepare for summer. My children are the type who wake up ready to go. My kids can go from sleep to fully dressed in the yard in 5 minutes flat. They don't seem to have time for a bowl of cereal and a cup of juice so I had to try something to get them through summertime with a healthy nutritional start to the day. These drinks are easy. They grab one on the way out and you feel less guilty. The cap can be put back on if you have one of those slow drinkers. We have only had the cookies n' creme flavor, which they love, but next run I plan to try strawberry. I've read the nutritional facts. Is it the most healthy way to start the day for children? Probably not. Will they drink it? Yes. Is it better than not eating breakfast? YES! Convenience coupled with the good price I call it a Win.

Great taste

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have drank carnation instant breakfast for years and this is the beat tasting one yet. It filled me up like a complete breakfast should. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who drinks carnation. It is definitely the most rich and tasteful flavor I have ever tasted

Great quick breakfast or added to a smoothie

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I remember drinking carnation instant breakfast when I was a kid, this updated version of the product I have never thought to try though and I was not disappointed! The taste is a rich chocolate, even my husband liked it and he’s not a fan of chocolate drinks. He used it in milk and I used it in almond milk and it tasted great. It recommends 8 oz, but it is a little thick that way so if it’s too thick you can add it to a larger amount of liquid. It does take a lot of stirring to mix in, I recommend a whisk or small blender to get it mixed together better. I have also branched out and tried the vanilla and strawberry flavors now and they are great in my smoothies I make with frozen berries! I am on a gluten free diet and have not had any issues drinking this. While it is gluten free there are cross contamination risks for this so obviously be cautious if you have more specific limitations. But for me this is a great option when I need some extra calories.

Disappointed

As long as i can remember the “Chocolate malt” flavor has been my favorite. I used to buy the variety pack specifically for the “chocolate malt” flavor. I am extremely disappointed that the flavor seems to be discontinued. I would pay good money for the flavor to be brought back and to even have its own box! It would be awesome if customers were able to customize their own box with their favorite flavors. But more than anything I hope you all bring back the chocolate malt!! Please and thank you!

Tastes like chocolate milk with no vitamin taste

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received Carnation Breakfast Essentials in Rich Milk Chocolate in exchange for my honest review. I mixed the powder according to the directions on the packet using 2% milk. I stirred the mixture for about a minute and most of it dissolved pretty easily. It tasted like chocolate milk and didn’t have any “vitamin” taste to it. There were some small clumps of powder still in the milk that I could taste while drinking. After drinking it, I noticed that some of the chocolate powder didn’t get mixed very well because the bottom of my glass was coated. Maybe If I had a milk frother this would have been mixed better.
