Found a tasty new low calorie drink mix

 I really don't like crystal light. I think it tastes fake and too sweet. Someone gave samples of Cirku drink mixes at my support group the other night and I decided to try it. It is acutally really really good and not as sweet as crystal light. I like it a lot and just wanted to share my find!

The flavors are

wild plum (drinking it now)
cran rasberry
citrus
tropical

They also have chocolate ones that you can mix in other stuff besides water but I haven't tried it yet. I might put it in my vanilla shake tonight.

Anyone else try this?

Have you tried "MIO"? Squirt it right into your glass-no granules and you control the amount of flavor. works for me

 Yeah I have some but didn't like it when I was first out of surgery. Maybe I will try it again.

I have never heard of it but it looks interesting!  I see it is only available online and they have a money back guarantee. I wish they had sample packs!

I will have to check these out!!  I am at a loss for good protein!  It is all I can do to choke down the powder.  I guess I need some new recipes to mix w/it.  If anyone had any please let me know!

Sounds good, kind of pricey though.

 I didn't care for the Mio either.  Now for crystal light, I only add in 1/2 of the packet or it's too sweet for me too.

I did find a Sobe Life water (Macintosh Cherry) and Vitamin Zero lemon one that I really like.  I have a Vitamin Zero blood orange in the fridge getting chilled now so I'll try it in the morning.  My husband loves it.
