Recommendations for flavoring other than Crystal Light?



Recommended Posts

Does anyone have any recommendations for Water flavorings other than Crystal Light? I'm trying to stay away from aspartame but haven't been able to find a good alternative. Before I was sleeved I used to drink crystal light regularly and now I'm not drinking nearly as much as before. I think it is because plain water bores me. I need some taste!

I've seen some great recommendations for Water flavored with fresh lemon slices, or cucumber with mint, or other flavors from real fruits/herbs. Might be delicious for summer sipping!

Here's a recipe link for cucumber water:

I use real lemons or limes. Cucumbers work well. Green tea is something that I keep in the fridge. Just about any dried fruit can be made into a tea. Mangos, apricots. I drop a few pieces of crystalized ginger in my green tea jar. Really good.

Try Dansani Water flavoring - it's sweetened with sucralose and so light and refreshing! I like pink lemonade, grape and pineapple coconut flavors the best. Also I'm on vacation in Kauai Hawaii right now and our hotel has their water jug filled with fresh fruits- pineapple, strawberry, kiwi, orange, and even some lemongrass. It is soooo yummy!

Ohhhh...that last link is just gorgeous! How appealing is that to see those beautiful fruits with mint leaves, etc...in the Water? When we eat out, we always just order water to save $$ on our bill & I ask for lemon & lime wedges so have already been drinking that but this summer when I grow my mint, I will add mint leaves to it too! Thank you for sharing!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
