I’m not even gonna lie to you, no matter how “great-tasting” they are or claim to be…
I HATE taking liquid vitamins and minerals!
… without it being in something, that is.
Now don’t get me wrong, because a few that I’ve tried usually DO have a great natural orange flavor (more like orange-pineapple in my opinion) however…
They are STILL liquid VITAMINS and MINERALS and therefore, you will taste the underlying flavor of…vitamins!
When taken you will experience the fullness of its flavor when it enters your mouth; unlike pills that are coated and simply swallowed down without much of the flavor coming through – unless you allow it to just sit in your mouth.
Therefore, it may prove to be a not-so-pleasant experience for the finicky when taking liquid vitamins and minerals.

But the bottom line is that there is no use having such a great product in your refrigerator or cupboard if you can’t or won’t take it!
So, I’ve put together a few…
Tips to make liquid vitamins & minerals more palatable for picky people:
1. Get Those Liquid Vitamins And Minerals Down By Making It Juicy!
Mixing liquid vitamins and minerals supplement with orange juice (orange-pineapple juice even BETTER) is by far my favorite method!
I kind of have it down to a “science” and I’ll tell you, the way that I mix it you can barely detect that anything has been added to your juice!
Here is my “recipe” for taking liquid vitamins and minerals in juice:
– 1 ounce (or whatever the recommended serving is) of liquid vitamins and minerals
– 1 ounce of water
– 6-8 oz of orange (or orange-pineapple) juice
– 1 TBS lemon juice
Stir it up with a spoon or straw and enjoy this glass of power-punch juice!
Even my VERY picky children drink it this way and claim, “It just tastes like orange juice”
2. Make Your Liquid Vitamins And Minerals Go Down Smoothly In A Smoothie!
This is another way I’ve been able to get my daily dose of liquid vitamins and minerals in when there was no orange juice.
Just whip up your favorite fruit smoothie and stir the supplement into the smoothie.
Be sure to mix well as sometimes it may want to just sit on top of the smoothie…but stir (or blend) it in there well and you’ll hardly be able to tell!
3. Really Want A Way To Deliciously Take Your Liquid Vitamins And Minerals? Shake It Up!
When I heard someone say that I could mix liquid vitamins in with my favorite protein meal replacement shake, I thought to myself, “Yeah RIGHT! That would taste awful!”
But one day I got brave enough to try it and low and behold, it was great!
Couldn’t even tell the vitamin had been mixed in there.
Aside from OJ…this is my next favorite way to take my liquid vitamins and minerals!
4. Knock Your Liquid Vitamins And Minerals Back With a Twist of Lemon or Lime!
Although mixing your liquid vitamin supplement in something is better than not taking them at all, I’ve personally found that taking it straight packs more of a punch and I feel the results faster and better when I just bite the bullet & knock it back.
That still doesn’t negate the fact that the ‘vitaminy’ taste be kind of overbearing, though. So, I got this “bright idea” to add lemon or lime juice to it and I discovered that…
When I squeeze some lemon or lime juice (lime is actually my favorite) into the little 1-ounce cup that comes with the vitamins I take and give it a quick stir… that cuts the sweetness AND the vitamin taste CONSIDERABLY! It actually makes it taste GOOD!
Now, I can’t speak for ALL liquid vitamins and mineral supplements… but it sure as heck works with the one I take.
And yes, you can use the bottled lemon or lime juice as well… fresh IS better, but do what you can and use what you have!
Another IMPORTANT tip for taking your liquid vitamins and minerals…
Be SURE that you take it with food – this is very important…TRUST me, as I learned this the hard way!
Not only because the vitamin and mineral supplement may be very potent (especially if it’s in liquid form) but also because some key nutrients are absorbed into your bloodstream better when taken with food.
So, if you prefer a liquid-based vitamin supplement over pills BUT you’ve always had a hard time taking it; hopefully you will remember and apply the tips I gave you and find them VERY helpful!
OH! One other thing…
