New drink find.......

Had to run to Walmart on my lunch hour to pick a couple thing up.  Figured I might as well stock up on my crystal lite while I was there. 

Ocean Spray has a line of almost calorie free drinks - 5 cal per serving.   I am currently enjoying Ruby Red Grapefruit.  They have cranberry, cran apple, cran grape and cran raspberry also. 

One thing I like about it, it is not overly sweet like some of the drinks are.  I usually use 1 individual pack of crystal lite (for 16 oz) to 20-24 oz of water.

Thought I would spread the word.  Its just something different.

Enjoy

I just returned from Walmart -- where I went to buy a turtleneck (I am freezing on my morning walk, but no turtlenecks out yet) and peach tea crystal lite (which they were out of), and I got the Ocean Spray Peach!

Yummmm!!!  Now I wish that I would have grabbed some of the other flavors!
I also don't like my drinks too sweet -- I use one crystal lite for a whole litre of water, so I like that this isn't overly sweet, too.

Thanks for the find!!!

I use the Walmart brand of the "crystal lite" product and I find that to not be as sweet as CL. Plus its cheaper!

Do you know what it's sweetened with?  (Sucralose-Splenda, or aspertame)  I don't much like most of those because they are sweetened with aspertame which gives me a headache.

 Went to Walmart, and,considering I normally don't like "any" type of sweetened drink(normally a water and an iced tea person) I decided to buy a case of water ad some of the peach flavored Ocean Spray.. As you said, i was pleasantly surprised, It was really god- not overly "fake" sugary sweet that so many are. I appreciate the suggestions. Maybe I will finally get in m "water" amounts for the day now. Thanks...

Tina,

It is aspertame.
