Hi, I’ve been on Huel for a couple of months but getting a bit bored with Berry / Mint Choc. What do you think Is best for the flavour boosts, vanilla or the unflavoured powder? I have some boost sample packs to try out with my next order. Thanks! ---

Personally I think the Original powder works best as it’s a more neutral flavour. The vanilla has a strong toffee flavour which does work quite well with some of the boosts (mint, mocha), but doesn’t work at all with others (matcha, pineapple, caramel) If you prefer it less sweet then the unflavoured works really well with the flavour boosts but you have to use much more boost so the sample sachets aren’t quite strong enough unless you make a mini 1 scoop shake. I find the perfect blend for most of the flavour boosts is 50/50 Unflavoured/Original. The best flavours in my opinion are mocha, caramel, Cacao, and matcha 🥰 Edit: oh and mint choc!!! The boost is quite different from the premix mint choc. I love both. The premix is more refreshing and like buttery mint with a hint of chocolate, the boost is more chocolatey and also minty. ---

50/50 unflavoured and original with banana boost FTW ---

Definitely Original rather than Vanilla, and I also dilute the sweetness of Original with Unflavoured, though more like a third Original to two thirds Unflavoured these days. ---

I much much prefer original over vanilla, flavour boost or not ---

I prefer the vanilla but I do have a sweet tooth. ---

The bizarre thing is that vanilla has less sweetener that than the original, yet still tastes sweeter. ---

I find Original far sweeter than Vanilla. So much so that I have to mix it with UU to be able to drink it. 25g Original to 75g UU. Vanilla I can drink as it is. ---
