Title: I got a box today ! No Sugar natural Drinkmixers
Post by: Tailgating is my game on February 27, 2013, 06:47:08 PM
Even tailgaters need to save a few calories. ???
 
I will be doing a taste test with two new drink mixers  along with my brother who is a diabetic & some friends.  I will let you know what we think of the taste & report back to you. If the taste is there this should be a real winner because it will have what everyone needs for a fun time & a healthy drink. The reviews I have read have been really good as of today.

How about a Margarita Mix without
1) Any fats
2) Cholesterol
3) Sodium
4) Just 2G of carbs
5) SUGAR
6) Chemicals


BUT IT DOES HAVE 100% of your Vitamin C & it’s all natural.

How about a sweet & sour mix with the same specs.

They also make Caipirinha, Mojito, sangrita, spritzer & other special mixers.

AAAhhh I forgot the calories .... five (5) per 3OZ serving.

So how is it sweetened......with something I am familiar with Stevia all natural sweetener.

Stevia Is the safest form of sugar substitute that I know of with zero real sugar & it tastes great.  If you don't know about it please look it up on the net. I think it taste great.

This new product is called Sin-less made by the Sinless Cocktails LLC.    http://sinlesscocktails.com/ for more info.

---------------------------------------
One last thing if you like whiskey & Ginger like I do there is a company that makes a stevia soda called Zevia.  I really like their Ginger ale with whiskey. It taste great & has zero sugar.

What I am also finding is many alcohols have little sugar & it’s the traditional mixers that add on the sugar & pack on the pounds>

With all these calories I am saving …….I can eat more Beef> :D

I have been drinking Zevia for about five years. I love Coke & Pepsi regular soda. I like the Diets but I just don't trust them.   With Zevia most of the 10 or twelve flavors they have are real good with none of the sugar of regular & none of the bad of diet. Some of their sodas have caffeen & some don't. We know everyones tastes are not the same but many people love this stuff. I Like Grape, cola, orange ginger Cream. & some others

But as I said before whiskey & ginger taste very good.

By the way I don't get paid by any of these companies. I may include some of the informaton from these products in a future article I may be doing but I just like this new type of healthy product.......... As long as they taste good.

Here is a couple more things on sinless products that the company sent me.

Our Sinless Cocktail mixers include Margarita, Strawberry Margarita, Sour Mix and Mojito

They are All Natural, Sugar Free and have only 5 Calories per serving

They are made with real lemon and lime juice, sweetened with Stevia and have no preservatives
