I go in Monday too :/  my doctors office gives you the drink to hang on too, 4 weeks before your glucose test, so I've been staring at mine for the past month.  My doc said put it in the fridge.  I also heard orange was better tasting, so that's what I chose. He said to bring a snack so that after I get my blood drawn, I can eat(I have to fast). Basically he said chug it, get my blood drawn, eat and it shouldn't be too bad. He said other than that,  there's no way to make it taste good.

The orange flavor is decent when cold. It taste like flat orange soda. Fruit punch is ok to. Just make sure they give you a cold one.
