Orange and honey or vanilla and honey ought to go well together. I'm not sure what else would work with honey though. I'm drawing off past experiences with mixtures in other concoctions.

However, if the orange already includes the sweetner, then it's a no-brainer.

Still not sure if I want to go low-carb again. I like my oatmeal and fruit.
i wouldn't get it unsweetened but flavored. The best approach is getting plain whey, and then getting the flavor separately. I've ordered some unsweetened but flavored, and it's hard to get it sweet enough. On top of that, if you want to have the shakes other times than pwo, then you're going to have a hard time getting it sweet enough.

If i were you, i'd get a batch of unsweetened, unflavored WPC. Then, get the flavors separately. You could get waxy as a carb source. It's OK, but not great, and isn't sweetened. Or, you could just add oats to your shake.

If i was going to go the honey route, i would just take a spoon or two of honey, and then drink the shake.
