Gatorade...
Take creatine before and/or after your workout.
CEE is best taken before your workout and Mono is better for your post workout.

Are you taking regular creatine monohydrate, CEE, or kre-alkalyn??

If regular creatine, dont mix it. Just take a heaping teaspoon put it in your mouth and chase it with a glass of grape juice and then drink another 8-12 oz. of water after that.

With the CEE, you can mix it with gatorade, crystal light, grape juice, etc. You will want something pretty tasty or sweet with the CEE. The CEE tastes horrible.

Correct, it would be good to spike your insulin with juice/gatorade after a workout when taking the creatine. Then finish off with some water. No point to really mix it, just take a scoop and chase it with water, and juice. Or just water.

Do just as I stated above. Put 1 heaping teaspoon of creatine in your mouth and chase it with a glass of grape juice then drink another 8-12 oz. of water afterwards.
