I usually mix mine with a spirlulina/chlorella flavored juice. I have powder now. When I was using pills, I'd take with water.

I tried once a long time ago to drink with plain water..my fault was not at properly mixing it together..so it was clumpy. I'll try water only next time. I hate drinking it with juice. To much unnecessary sugars.
 
I take most of my non-tasty supplements in a protein drink or a smoothie shake. I have been crushing pills and vitamins forever with a pill crusher, and I discovered that I can throw in the well crushed stuff in my home made (egg cocktail) shake, and add a teaspoon of lecithin before mixing in my Magic Bullet, then the taste is bearable. Not good, but bearable. The lecithin acts as a binder, and helps to get rid of the awful aftertaste of vitamins, and wheatgerm oil. :perplexed
I haven't tried the spirulina in a pill form, but I do buy the vanilla protein powder with spirulina already mixed in. When mixed with your favorite milk (soy, hemp, rice), the spirulina taste isn't bad at all. HTH!!

*uugghhh* I love what chlorella in powder form does for my body, but I literally can not STAND to taste any of it!!
Heres what I do

Mix Chlorella with a 1/4 cup juice
Hold my Nose (TIGHTLY, Im talkin death grip)
Chug
CONTINUE to hold Nose
Grab as peice of gum, and eat half of it.
Chew for a good 30 seconds before letting my nose go.

LOL, I know its alot, but not letting my nose go, keeps the taste and smell of the chlorella from rising.
 
It's not too bad for me. I have been drinking both spirulina and chlorella plain without the juice. Strictly mixing the powders with water. It can be done. One thing that helps is to not stir the powders. I mix mine with a sports bottle. shake, shake, shake..I make sure there are no clumps or anything that will swell in my throat and make me gag.
 
Juice, smoothie, or tea. Mostly mixed in with my herbal teas. The best tasting green foods blend by far for me has been from New Vitality. They add mint and stevia, makes all the difference in the world to me:yep:.

A big military 'whoo ahh':armyhat: to all of you chugging it straight! I can but I don't like to...

I make a sauce with spirulina, it s quite tasty and easy.

I mix equal amounts of soy sauce, oil and spirulina. Goes very well with salads, vegetables, rice etc.
