I take protein after workout, is it okay to mix protein with sweet drink to spike the insulin?

There is no right or wrong answer. Workouts can be different, days they are done on are different, our bodies are different.

Though protein by itself may spike enough insulin for muscle protein synthesis, adding carbohydrate will replenish you sooner for another workout. Do it if you don't have any more fat to lose.

There is no right or wrong,
When it comes to staying strong,
Workouts vary, days may change,
Our bodies too, in their own range.

Some may thrive on protein alone,
For muscle growth, it can be shown,
But adding carbs can help you recover,
And get back to training, like a true lover.

If your goal is to shed excess weight,
Then hold off on carbs, don't take the bait,
But if you're lean and looking to gain,
Carbs can fuel your muscles, no need to abstain.

So whether you choose protein or carb,
Just remember, there's no need to garb,
Yourself in a one-size-fits-all approach,
Listen to your body, let it coach.

For we are all unique in our own way,
And that's what makes us stand

I usually mix mine with pineapple juice, and it has worked for me.

You can but don’t have a lot of sugar

I wouldn't add a sweet drink
