    One of the reasons I struggled losing weight in the past was because I couldn’t find a proper alternative to my soda craving. Ever since I started drinking these, I’ve lost 30lbs. Just make sure you’re eating right and working out often.

I have found a few zero sugar zero carb alternatives Zevia being one. You review is definitely helpful to know which flavors to look out for!

Also there is now fruit punch, orange cream (that could be super), and cherry cola. Then they have these other 'kidz' flavors: strawberry lemonade (sounds yum), fizzy apple (I love apple lifesavers), watermelon (same), and cran-raspberry. Uh-oh, and 8 versions of organic teas !!

      OK, I've since found strawberry (pretty good, but interestingly more tart than sweet, the most tart of any of these), fruit punch (OK but not too unique), orange cream (it's in the fridge, haven't tried it yet, expecting something great), cherry cola (was very good), strawberry lemonade (was terrible, I don't know what this is, ugh), fizzy apple (really really good, tastes like lifesavers apple), and 2 teas, peach, and raspberry (both were very watered down, could taste the fruit flavor but not the tea, very weak). Grapefruit citrus is on the other side of town, will get there later. Can't find watermelon or cran-raspberry. The black cherry tastes more like Dr. Pepper than does Dr. Stevia. The cola was only OK. The grape was great !! Orange, ginger ale, cream soda, lemon lime all very good. Mountain, ginger root beer, creamy root beer all good. The only ones I won't buy again are Dr. Stevia and strawberry lemonade. The rest will be in regular rotation !!

    Great review for a great product. You're cute and that made it fun. I've been drinking zevia for almost a year now. My favourite is the root beer Ginger and then the ginger and then third would be the creamy root beer that I find tastes really close to a&w Root beer. It's a great product, I don't even really notice the stevia aftertaste, I am happy this product is available as I was never really a soda drinker to begin with because of the high sugar and the diet ones using artificial sweeteners.

      I really think either or are about the same. Aspartame just has been around the longest so it is the most tested sugar substitute. It is safe and takes A LOT to have any adverse effects. You more want to make sure you are eating foods throughout the day that don’t need added sugar/sugar substitutes but some everyday is totally ok! Thank you for watching!!!

    @itshoneychilee Před 3 měsíci

    I love sugar, but like only table sugar or brown sugar and genuinely nothing else, because everything else has an off flavor and takes me back to the dark days of Sweet and Low. The only time I’ll say something is too sweet is like pop tart jelly, cinnamon rolls, chocolate, and cereal bars. Otherwise, I’ll put table sugar on just about anything (I won’t eat rice, grits, or oatmeal without it). I can cut my sugar intake by mixing table sugar with Stevia in like a 1:3 ratio, but not Stevia alone. But if Stevia is that much sweeter than table sugar, I wonder if that’s why it tastes so off to me. Is it so sweet that it actually tastes disgusting, like just a level or so above Sweet and Low, to me and that’s why I prefer table sugar? My mom will buy Stevia and she doesn’t use much, so nothing tastes that sweet so I have to add in table sugar to sweeten it, but in general, I’d never actually buy Stevia packets like my mom does. I’d always have to mix it to be able to stand it without that after taste.

  • @Kevlarel84
    @Kevlarel84 Před rokem

    Mountain Dew isn't a citrus soda as much as it's a white grape soda. Its main ingredient is white grape and it has citrus flavors added to enhance that. It may have some very subtle lemon or lime undertones but orange is actually the dominant citrus used. Try Mountain Dew again and think of white grape and subtle orange/citrus. I was never a big Dew fan. I liked more colas, orange or grape sodas, and different brand lemon-lime mostly. I prefer Mellow Yellow over the DEW. Thanks for the great Zevia review. I've been thinking about trying it and have been looking for good info. I've been switching back to diet soda for diabetic reasons and want to steer clear of aspartame. It's getting hard to find sodas with Splenda/sucralose as they seem to be sneaking aspartame back under the "zero" title. Maybe Zevia will be a better option for me.

      @@Nicolehoskens Yes I am in the US and am looking at Zevia on Amazon. I hope to try all the flavors at some point. I was mainly looking at the lemon-lime, grape, or cola for my first try. Unfortunately the variety pack is priced higher right now. The single flavor cases are cheaper right now. I'm also interested in the ginger ale and that ginger root beer variety is very tempting as well. I'll get back to you after I try some.

      @@Nicolehoskens I tried my first Zevia soda today. I ended up getting a case (24) of the Cherry Cola from Amazon. The Cherry cola was the best deal the day I ordered and it was one I wanted to try. I think it is pretty good overall. There is a slight aftertaste but I'm sure it's something I'll get used to. All diet pop has some sort of taste you have to get used to. It will be worth it to stay away from aspartame and sugar for me. I also like that zevia has no sodium. I'm hoping to get my hands on a variety pack so I can try many of the flavors I'm interested in.
