Whey protein is best used for post workout and in the morning.
Some ways to help the taste is to add a banana, peanut butter, dextrose etc.
Syntrax Nectar

I have only tried the apple ecstasy flavor, and it tasted very good for a shake with no carbs or fat. It tasted fruity. Each serving (scoop) has 23 grams of protein, so I took 2 scoops (46 grams of protein) twice per day. It was pretty good.
PrimaForce Substance WPI

This is possibly the best protein powder you can get. Both watermelon and grape are outstanding flavors. No fat, no sugar, no aspartame, just high quality whey protein isolate. You can also ge this product for a pretty good price considering the quality.

I have to give this a 10/10. It's high quality, good price, and unbelievable taste.
