I'm not going to argue creatine with you guys! Ive been using creatine for about 10 years and have always mixed it with juice. The few times I mixed micronized creatine with water it dissolved just fine. I have never had a problem with creatine making a fast track to the back door! Drink the shit with juice and it will disolve, and your body will absorb it more efficiently than with just water.
