Is anyone a fan of water flavored packets. Do you think they are a better choice than diet drinks?

    There's nothing I like adding more to a nice beverage than some water flavor. Mmm.

    Do I think they are a better choice than diet soda? No. 9 times out of 10, the ingredients are similar.

    I don't like anything with artificial sweetners. They give me a headache. I like to infuse water with different fruits and vegetables to make it taste more interesting. My favorite is strawberry, lemon and mint. Cucumber is good too. You can really come up with any combo you like.

    Depends on the packet. As always, check the ingredient list and nutrition information. IIFYM. :smile:

    They ARE diet drinks.

    ETA: I use them on occasion, just like I drink diet soda on occasion. My preference is flavored seltzer. I fizz up tap water with my SodaStream and add a few drops of fruit extract. Tastes the same as the purchased La Croix, Klarbrunn, etc.

    I have no issues with them but FYI they have more artificial sweeteners than most diet sodas
