  • sugar-free drink mixes?

    I've heard a couple of people say that Crystal Light is sweetened with Splenda, but the stuff I find in my stores all contains aspartame.

    I'm trying to find a sugar-free lemonade drink mix that is sweetened with either Splenda or Stevia or something else that's good on this diet.

    Have you tried water, lemon and some splenda? I drink sparkly water with lemon or lime once in a while it is very refreshing. Just a suggestion.

      That sounds good, but then the added lemon juice would be about 1 carb and the splenda would be another. I was hoping there would be a drink mix that would have zero carbs or only 1 per serving.

        I swear Chrystal Light was with Splenda, but I also checked them out last time I went shopping and it was all aspertane.
        I would rather use Draino, at least I know its gonna kill me.

          here is what I found online for Crystal Light Lemonade - there's NOTHING in it that I'd put in my body!!! Buy a lemon and squeeze it into some water, add a packet of splenda and count it toward your carb total for the day.....not the same as real food in your body but if you have to have something other than pure water it's better that this chemically based stuff.

          Crystal Light Lemonade

          Ingredients
          Citric Acid Provides Tartness , Potassium Citrate Controls acidity , Aspartame Sweetener , Maltodextrin From Corn , Magnesium Oixide Prevents Caking , Natural Flavor , Acesulfame Potassium Sweetner , Lemon Juice Solids , Artificial Color, Yellow 5 Lake , BHA Preserves Freshness , Phenylketonurics Contains Phenylalanine
