Shake to water ratio....

[Jenn457]

Very odd title you may think however I have been thinking and just wanted some opinions!

i always add more water than the packet says for the shakes cause I find them a little too thick and prefer them that way but I read somewhere that you shouldn't do that and then today while I was having my vanilla shake I thought if I added less water than the packet and mixed it with ice it would be like ice cream!

I don't know why adding more or less water would make a difference because surely all the nutrients are exactly the same?

I know that you can buy mix a mousse but I can't have it because I'm vegetarian! What are everyone's thoughts?

It shouldn't make a difference at all. It doesn't make the least bit sense actually!! Just add as much water you want !!

Agreed! It's just getting you closer to your recommended intake! I always have about 250-300ml with my shakes and it's done me no harm. In fact in the early days I would blend them all with ice and they would only just fit in a pint glass!

I didn't think so but wanted to know if anyone had heard otherwise! I agree @flossnoscar it makes no sense what-so-ever! xx
