When making a drink from a mix (as opposed to a mixed drink…), I have to put the powder in the cup before the liquid. So, the iced tea mix goes in before the ice or the water. And the Coffee Mate and sugar go in before the coffee. In my head, this makes sense because then things start getting mixed while you’re pouring in the liquid. It also means that you (usually) don’t get globs of the mix (or whatever) on your spoon handle while mixing.
There’s more. If I go back for a refill, I have to use a fresh spoon each time. I know. I can’t STAND having the mix stick to the “old” water (or coffee or whatever) on the spoon. And the little drops/globs left in the mix from that wet spoon creep me out. I know.
I used to have to use a fresh cup each time…but I’ve forced myself to stop that. Baby steps…

I think you need a couple ‘mixed drinks’ and just relax. 🙂
I am the same with the powered stuff.
Is there another way?
Maybe it’s time for you to rinse your spoon after you use it? lol. I don’t like the glob-filled spoon either. The worst is hot chocolate. It’s a half wet, half powder glob.
LOL Glad you don’t get a new cup each time anymore. heehee
ps I have to rinse the cup and spoon in between each use 🙂
