Yeah it's alright. You shouldn't leave it mixed for more then 8 hours though. Try searching this on fitbuddy at the bottom of the page, you'll find something there surely

Actually, I wouldn't even wait that long. It does not take very long for creatine to break down in a liquid and become useless, which is why liquid creatine products are a waste of money. Take your creatine as soon as possible.

I agree with dahayz on this one, only mix your creatine right before your about to take it.

Yep, creatine breaks down in a fluid to a waste product, creatinine rather quickly. Do not mix your creatine until right before ready to consume.
