My new "drug" of choice is Sparkling Ice Strawberry Lemonade (ISBN: 016571950293). Sparkling Ice makes a whole bunch of flavors. The bottle says that it has no calories.

I am almost 49 years old and have never found a low cal or no cal carbonated beverage that I liked. Never. My 18 year old convinced me to try this and I was shocked at how much I like it. I drink about one in a day.

Here is a link to FAQs about the product. I checked because I wanted to see what sweetner they used. They say they use Splenda.

Prior to this when I wanted carbonation, I reached for ginger ale (regular) and just accepted that I was downing empty calories. The worst part was I was setting my 18 year old diabetic daughter up for failure when I brought it in the house. So, finding this product is a help to me with my eating goals. I find a sip of it can derail a craving.

With a smile . . .

    Whenever we go to Sam's Club I pick up a case of Sparkling Ice. Cherry Limeade is my go-to.
