For a while, the taste was difficult for me as well. But, then I discovered that taking it with sparkling water (I use Mountain Valley Sparkling water in the glass bottle). This made it way easier for me to drink even a 5-drop dose without much taste. In the MMS Health Recovery book, it suggested stirring in a bit of Bentonite Clay. I had no Bentonitr Clay so I mixed in a half of teaspoon of food-grade Diatomaous Earth. And it works great. I can take down a 3-5 drop dose with relative ease now. I would also use a tiny sip of pop/soda immediately afterwards just to knock off the rest of the taste. However, after downloading the Yuka App and scanning those beverages, I no longer consume them. If you can find the Yuka app, I highly suggest you do.
