Chocolate flavored protein powders are one of the most basic, yet delicious flavors to get. You probably tried an original chocolate protein shake in the past. Whether you liked it or not, depends. But if you’re looking for a REAL and AUTHENTIC chocolate flavor, this is it…

Optimum Nutrition Extreme Milk Chocolate tastes exactly how it says… And even more (I’ll tell you later).

I got this flavor years ago. It’s an old one. But still stands the test of time as being one of the best Optimum Nutrition flavors in their catalog.

That’s a bold statement, but it couldn’t be any further from the truth.

If you’re a chocolate lover, this is the protein powder you’ve been searching for all this time.

I remember reading so many positive reviews on it that I just bought a 5 pound tub without question. Not the smartest idea, but I didn’t regret it one bit.

Extreme Milk Chocolate Review: Water

As with all protein powders, the first thing I tried it with was water. But before I tell you how it tastes, I think it’s worth mentioning how great it smelled…

Once you twist off the cap, the sweetest chocolate aroma flies straight out of the tub.

And if it smells good, it’s almost certain to taste good too.

So here’s how it tastes…

Imagine a fresh brew of hot chocolate, but at room temperature or ice cold. That’s basically how it tastes. And it tastes delicious!

I don’t know how Optimum Nutrition did it, but it’s really like a milk chocolate.

The texture is milky and creamy. And overall, it’s just super sweet.

Not sweet to the point of an actual chocolate bar. But sweeter (and better) than the average protein powder. Enough to really give you that rich milk chocolate flavor.

Extreme Milk Chocolate Review: Milk

If what I just said sounded like something you want to try, wait til’ you here how it tastes in milk…

A protein powder with the word “Milk” in it has to taste amazing with real milk right?

Mixing these two together was the best thing I’ve tasted from a chocolate protein powder. What does it taste like?

To put it simply… a Hershey’s Milk Chocolate Bar.

Optimum Nutrition Extreme Milk Chocolate tastes like a Hershey’s Bar

It’s almost ridiculous how similar it tastes.

And if it wasn’t already creamy enough with just water, mixing it with milk is as creamy as it can get. With a little more added sweetness from the milk, this protein shake is certain to be the sweetest thing you’ll ever drink after a workout.

This is my most recommended way of drinking Extreme Milk Chocolate.

You just can’t go wrong with a cold milkshake that tastes like chocolate syrup was drizzled all over it.

Extreme Milk Chocolate Review: Milk And A Banana

Now that you know how fantastic Extreme Milk Chocolate tastes in both water and milk. Let’s see how it tastes in one of the ultimate combinations for a protein shake – milk and a banana.

Many people know how these two items can take even the most disgusting protein powder and turn it into a wonderful milkshake. But with Extreme Milk Chocolate, it’s just not the best thing ever.

I’ve ran into this problem with several protein powders before like Optimum Nutrition Mocha Cappuccino and PumpChasers Peach Cobbler GAF Whey. And it’s the same with this one.

Here’s what I mean…

Extreme Milk Chocolate with milk and a banana is simply too sweet for my liking. So unless you’re a sugar-addict and crazy about sweets, this combination won’t be for you.

But if you are, you’ll go bananas (intended) over this.

Everyone knows chocolate and bananas go great together. So you can probably tell how this is already going to taste.

And you guessed it!

It’s like a frozen, milk chocolate-covered banana. Sure to give anyone their sugar fix for the entire day. You’ll be sipping this savoring every last drip of it. It’s that sweet!

Extreme Milk Chocolate After A Few Weeks

After a few weeks, this did get a bit boring.

But what do you expect? It still is just a normal chocolate flavor. And chocolate and vanilla has been the main players for the past several years.

So yes, you might get tired of the sweet chocolatey goodness from this protein powder.

However, don’t get me wrong.

This doesn’t mean the taste gets worse (or better). It’s still delicious, but it isn’t always fun drinking the same type of chocolate flavor all the time.

So what do you do?

You have to mix it up. You don’t have to buy multiple protein powders and switch between them. But it’s best if you use Extreme Milk Chocolate with different things.

One being this Chocolate Banana Protein Pancake Recipe that works with any chocolate protein powder. Or my secret weapon, in cereal.

With cereal, just mix it with the milk first, then pour in your cereal of choice. It doesn’t matter what it is. It could be the most bland and tasteless cereal.

In fact, it’s better to use one that has less flavor. Because with Extreme Milk Chocolate as its base, all the sweetness will come just from the powder.

Final Words

Optimum Nutrition Extreme Milk Chocolate is another one of their greatest flavors ever. Like I said earlier, it’s an old one they created years ago. Yet, it’s still selling today.

Lots of people have come to find this to be their favorite as well.

And they often compared this one to other chocolate protein powders of different brands. But for me, Extreme Milk Chocolate is always on top.

Not only does it taste nearly EXACTLY like what it says, it’s a basic flavor that you can mix with practically anything.

And even better?

It tastes good in water. And any protein powder that can taste good in water alone, is a protein powder worth buying again and again. Which is what I’ve done.

And I still stand by it to this day…

Extreme Milk Chocolate will be one of the best chocolate protein powders you’ll ever taste.
