Review: Zevia


I am a huge Pop (Soda) drinker. It is one of my biggest downfalls. I try to drink diet when I can, but then I have to deal with Aspartame most of the time. It's a never ending cycle. I was so happy when I stumbled across Zevia, while searching the web.

Zevia is a Zero Calorie Soda with No Sugar and No Artificial Sweeteners. It is Vegan, Kosher and Gluten Free.

I was sent several different kinds to try. My favorite was the Cherry Cola. The only one I didn't like was the Cream Soda. My second favorite was the Grapefruit Citrus, it tasted just like Squirt.

Zevia is available in 15 different flavors! Wow!

Zevia uses a combination of Stevia, and Monk Fruit extract to sweeten their sodas, they call it SmartSweet.




Not to mention, and I compare the two cans of soda in front of me, one being Zevia's Grapefruit Citrus (The empty can) and the other being a popular Diet soda... Zevia also has less sodium! This is huge for my husband and I because we tend to eat way more sodium than we should. He loved Zevia.

Review: Ale 8 One

You've heard me talking about my weakness for salty snacks- but I also have another one... Pop, or Soda, depending on what part of the country you live in. But, Generally speaking, I am fairly picky about the pop that I drink. I do not like the famous caffeine packed bright green soda that everyone seems to rave about. Yeah, you know the one. I also am not a fan of Colas. Now, with that being said, I love Ginger Ale. 

Ever since I was little my mom would give me ginger ale to settle my upset stomach, and ever since then, I have loved it. I have tried many different brands and varieties and I think Ale 8 One is one of the best, if not the absolute best Ginger Ale I have ever tried. It tastes like ginger Ale, yet it is different. It has a nutty spice to it, kind of like a spice cake. At least I thought so anyway. Everyone in my household tried it, and everyone agreed, It was delicious!

I received the Diet Ale 8 one, which is sweetened with Splenda (No Aspartame!). It has Zero sugars, calories, or carbs. 
Expanding the distribution territory was followed by expanding the product line. Diet Ale 8 was introduced and Rogers’s oldest son, Fielding, was named vice president of the family business in 2003. The formula for Diet Ale 8 was perfected after years of extensive research and development. Diet Ale 8 was the first new product from the company since Ale-8-One was launched in 1926. State-of-the-art sweeteners, including sucralose (Splenda®), were chosen for their qualities to sweeten without leaving the aftertaste commonly associated with aspartame. Further, Diet Ale 8 contains no calories or aspartame.

Review: Cascade Ice Water

Cascade Ice is something that everyone should try, especially if you love to drink soda! It is a fizzy drink, and it tastes great, but it is WAY better than regular soda for you! I received 5 different flavors to try, Coconut, Lemonade, Macintosh Apple, Orange Mango, and Blueberry Watermelon. Out of those five, the Macintosh Apple was my favorite. In total, they have 21 flavors! What a variety!
 I think what made it my favorite was, it didn't taste like "fake" apple, it tasted exactly like when you bite into a crisp apple and the juice spurts into your mouth. Fresh and clean. Living in Michigan, surrounded by apple orchards (at least in my part of the state) we take our apples very seriously. 
  • Cascade Ice waters are free of unnecessary and unhealthy “extras” found in other flavored waters like calories, sodium, caffeine, gluten and sugar. Compared to many popular soda brands which can contain upwards of 38 grams of sugar,Cascade Ice beverages are sugar-free and full of flavor.
  • Cascade Ice has 21 delicious and unique flavors including Cranberry Pomegranate, McIntosh Apple and Orange Mango in addition to the line’s three newest flavors, Strawberry Banana, Coconut Mango and Coconut Pineapple. The sparkling waters have a delightful “fizz” combined with natural fruit juices. 
  • Cascade Ice is available for purchase in all 50 states, at retailers such as Albertson’s, Safeway, Ralph’s, QFC, A&P, Raley’s, Coborn’s, HEB, Market Basket, Shoprite, Food City and Price Choppers, among many others. Click here for a full map of retailer: http://cascadeicewater.com/wtb.html
Cascade Ice water contains Zero Sugar, caffeine, sodium, gluten, or carbs! It's great for people who are trying to cut out soda as part of a diet, but still want to be able to have carbonated drinks!
