How do I make creatine taste bearable?
I bought 0.5 kg (around a pound) bag. I thought lemon flavouring would make it nice, but it doesn't kill the taste of this vile shit at all. I get nauseous just by thinking about having to drink it. I get nauseous for two fucking hours after drinking it. I'm halfway through the bag of this ungodly stuff and I feel like flushing it down the toilet and getting pills instead.
Is there any trick that I don't know of?

This - it doesn't have a strong taste by itself, just put it in your shake, coffee, or sip. Any flavored drink, really.
Should have got unflavoured you melt
>not believing that creatine is anything less than a gift from god
Mix it with something then. I take 5g unflavored mixed with my protein and my pre, and another 5g in my post workout smoothie.

tea, protein, OJ, whatever man
Optimum Nutrition's creative has no taste whatsoever.
I put mine straight into my mouth and drink some water. It has no taste
I have the exact same creatine. It's flavourless, man. Just put a couple scoops on your tongue, then take a big gulp of water and let the creatine enter suspension, swallow it down. Drink more water and swill your mouth out to get the rest.
Best taken after drinking something sugary or eating a fair and even amount of protons and carbs

Maybe it's really the flavouring, it's my first creatine so I have no comparision. I dun goofed

I didn't have time for training at the time when I got it, took it for 2 weeks, then my first training I got my squat from 120 to 130 kg that I couldn't break by 2.5 kg for a long time. If not that, I wouldn't go through pain of drinking it
Shit, so I really should get unflavoured now.

You're fucking it up by buying flavored. The flavoring itself tastes like crap, while creatine itself has no flavour.

It tastes like the worst fucking medicine you can imagine m8. And then you realise you have to take it everyday. Just awful, it pissening, fucking lemon

This. Put straight in mouth and wash down with water.

There are a lot of great creatine powders, just get one with ZERO additives. 100% pure unflavored creatine powder is the way to go. I use Nutrabio but any creatine would do I imagine
Buy unflavored
It doesn't taste anything
Blend it in water or just put it in mouth and drink water
Literally no taste, just a slightly strange texture

That's genius, no need to clean a glass and I won't waste creatine this way
People don't just always buy capsule form? Fuck mixing powder I get pills.
