What's the best way to mix it?

Huel Black Edition Powder mixing guide — liquids, ratios, blender vs shaker, and tips for smooth, consistent shakes every time.

Written by Jamie Forbes

Huel Black Edition Powder mixes smoothly with water, milk, and plant-based alternatives, creating a consistent, drinkable shake every time.


Best liquids for mixing

  • Water: Lightest option, lets the flavor shine

  • Dairy milk: Adds creaminess and protein

  • Plant-based milk: Oat milk, almond milk, soy milk all work well

  • Coconut milk: Adds richness and tropical notes


Optimal mixing ratio

Standard: 2 scoops + 300ml liquid = smooth, drinkable consistency

Thicker: 2 scoops + 250ml liquid = creamy, milkshake-like

Thinner: 2 scoops + 350ml liquid = more drink-like


Blender vs shaker bottle

Blender (recommended): Creates the smoothest texture and ensures complete mixing.

Shaker bottle: Works well for quick preparation — shake vigorously for 30-60 seconds.


Tips for smooth mixing

Add liquid first: Pour liquid into your blender or shaker bottle before adding powder. This prevents clumping.

Blend or shake thoroughly: 30-60 seconds is typically enough for smooth consistency.

Chill before drinking: A few hours in the fridge improves texture and taste significantly.
