That&#8217;s why a shaker bottle does a better job of mixing the whey into the milk than simply stirring with a spoon. A blender works even better if you are willing to clean the blender after you are done. But there&#8217;s a better option: a handheld frother.<\/p>\n<p>To be clear, this is for beverages where you are mixing a powder with a liquid. (If you want ice and fruit in your protein shake\u2014a smoothie instead of a simple drink\u2014you&#8217;ll still need a blender. But you knew that.) As far as I can tell, it works with any powder and any liquid. I have tested the frother, and found that it gives excellent results: <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>Collagen Powder and Coffee (or Tea)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Whey Powder and Water<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>clear whey and water<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>hot cocoa and milk<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Various Supplement Powders, Well, Anything<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The shame is that I didn&#8217;t think of it myself. MUDWTR and complementary companies like <a rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/shopbeam.com\/products\/sleep-powder\" title=\"open in a new window\">beam<\/a> Include a handheld frother in their starter pack. In fact, the only reason I ever owned a frother in the first place is because MUDWTR once sent me one along with some samples in hopes that I would review the product. (My review: I don&#8217;t like it.) <\/p>\n<h2 id=\"how-to-use-a-frother-to-mix-your-protein-powder\">How to Use a Frother to Mix Your Protein Powder<\/h2>\n<p>First of all, make yourself a brother. These are simple handheld gadgets that cost about the same as a shaker bottle, at the low end about $7-10, and go up to almost infinity as they are a fancy coffee accessory. The cheap ones will work well for our purposes. Buy one that operates on AA batteries or that you charge via USB.<\/p>\n<p>Next, prepare your liquid. The first time you do this, make sure you use a larger sized container. The liquid will rise as you turn on the frother. But if you use eight ounces of liquid in a 16-ounce container, you&#8217;ll be left with a surprising mess. <\/p>\n<div class=\"pogoClear relative my-10 border-b-(1.5px) border-t-(1.5px) border-dashed border-black py-5 sm:my-14 sm:border-0 sm:py-0\" data-ga-click=\"\" data-ga-template=\"Explainers\" data-ga-module=\"openweb_widget\" data-ga-element=\"openweb_scroll\" data-ga-item=\"openweb_scroll_midpage\" x-data=\"{&#10;         commentsCount: null,&#10;         hasComments: false,&#10;         async fetchCommentsCount() {&#10;             try {&#10;                 if (window.openweb &amp;&amp; typeof window.openweb.getMessagesCount === 'function') {&#10;                     this.commentsCount = await window.openweb.getMessagesCount('1850455135');&#10;                     this.hasComments = this.commentsCount !== null &amp;&amp; this.commentsCount &gt; 0;&#10;                 }&#10;             } catch (e) {&#10;                 console.warn('Failed to fetch comment count:', e);&#10;             }&#10;         }&#10;     }\" x-init=\"fetchCommentsCount()\" x-cloak=\"\">\n<div class=\"relative flex justify-center\">\n<div class=\"flex max-w-fit items-center gap-x-3 bg-white px-5\">\n<p>            <span class=\"text-sm font-medium text-black\"><\/p>\n<p>                What do you think so far?<br \/>\n                <button class=\"ml-1 font-semibold text-brand-green underline hover:text-brand-green-700\" type=\"button\" aria-label=\"Comment section trigger\" onclick=\"window.openweb.scrollToComments('1850455135')\" x-text=\"hasComments ?

(Unless you&#8217;re using clarified whey, which tends to glue the foam; it&#8217;s better to add the foam first and then the powder.) If you put the foam in the center of the cup, you&#8217;ll get a whirlpool effect that sends the liquid toward the side (or top) of the container, hence my warning. Once you&#8217;ve done this a few times, you&#8217;ll know how to do it with less mess. Turning the frother and holding it over the edge of the cup keeps waves down. You can also pulse the frother a few times instead of leaving it on constantly, which reduces the waves even further. <\/p>\n<p>It only takes five to 10 seconds to mix yourself a soft, creamy protein shake \u2014 or hot cocoa, or whatever your smoothie-craving heart desires. Take a few more seconds to wash the business end of the brother; A few quick movements with a soapy sponge under running water is usually all you need to do. And then enjoy your perfectly blended drink with nothing but your cup to clean later.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script>\n            var facebookPixelLoaded = false;\n            window.addEventListener(\"load\", function() {\n                document.addEventListener(\"scroll\", facebookPixelScript);\n                document.addEventListener(\"mousemove\", facebookPixelScript);\n            });\n            function facebookPixelScript() {\n                if (!facebookPixelLoaded) {\n                    facebookPixelLoaded = true;\n                    document.removeEventListener(\"scroll\", facebookPixelScript);\n                    document.removeEventListener(\"mousemove\", facebookPixelScript);\n                    window.zdconsent.cmd.push(function() {\n                        ! function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n                            if (f.fbq) return;\n                            n = f.fbq = function() {\n                                n.callMethod ?\n                                    n.callMethod.apply(n, arguments) : n.queue.push(arguments);\n                            };\n                            if (!f._fbq) f._fbq = n;\n                            n.push = n;\n                            n.loaded = !0;\n                            n.version = \"2.0\";\n                            n.queue = ();\n                            t = b.createElement(e);\n                            t.async = !0;\n                            t.src = v;\n                            s = b.getElementsByTagName(e)(0);\n                            s.parentNode.insertBefore(t, s);\n                        }(window,\n                            document, \"script\", \"\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js\");\n                        fbq(\"init\", \"37418175030\");\n                        fbq(\"track\", \"PageView\");\n                    });\n                }\n            }\n        <\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We may earn commission from the links on this page.
