Re: Hand mixer for Nutriiveda

[Guest guest]

I also highly recommend the hand mixer. I use the Kitchenaid one (we call it

a boat motor) and use vanilla almond milk. One word of warning. only mix it

til it's smooth. If you over mix it starts to get really thick and gloppy

like it's going to turn into butter. I have also found that my boys won't

drink it at all with cow's milk now, only vanilla almond milk. I tasted it

(and I don't care for milk much) and it tasted like melted chocolate ice

cream.

I think this has been mentioned before, but we just purchased a small hand

blender to mix the Nutriiveda in liquid. It is not a traditional hand mixer,

but the kind that is one straight stick and you can attach a mixer at the

end so you can fit it in a cup. It works very well for mixing Nutriiveda.

The first two shipments of NV that we received were very easy to mix and I

wondered why people were mentioning the difficulties they were having with

mixing. However, we have had lots of problems with the latest shipment being

grainier and not mixing. We have tried mixing it in water and just about

every type of milk (almond, rice, cow, goat, etc.) We haven't been able to

get it in our son and he is trying to refuse to drink if it looks like it

has NV in it. This was not a problem with the first two shipments. I was

about to give up on NV altogether because of the problems we were having,

but one of the symptoms that we have noticed a vast improvement in

(drooling) has really increased in the past month as we haven't been able to

get the NV in him due to the consistency problems. I think the hand mixer

will be a good solution and I just wanted to share with anyone else who

might be struggling to mix it.

That's great that you found something that worked. I also wanted to add that we

just got a Cuisinart power blender and it is small so it doesn't take up the

entire counter, but blends the NV beautifully, and crushes ice. It has a small

container which is nice since we blend drinks for 4 people, and cleanup is a

snap. I got it with a rebate and a coupon, so it cost less than $40. I'm really

happy with it.

I also found a " handmixer " - non-motorized, ergonomically correct, just press a

lever with your thumb and it blends the NV into whatever liquid you are using -

I think I got it at Wal-Mart in the section that has rubbermaid-type products.
