They really do trick me into drinking way more water than I normally would.

Who uses/loves these, besides me?

What is your favorite flavor?

Mine is most definitely Orange Tangerine, with Fruit Punch running a close second.

    I just bought one last night for the first time. I bought strawberry/watermelon.

    I tried some last night. I put a drop in club soda (I used to be a Pepsi junkie and crave the fizz)

    It was really good, but I can't have more than one drop because anything with aspartame/sucralose gives me migraines.

    I love the strawberry/watermelon! I just ran out and need to get some more. It definitely makes me drink way more water.

    My sister's favorite is the strawberry watermelon also! I find it too watermelon-y and a little sweet for my tastes. Orange Tangerine reminds me of Hi-C Orange, which is why I LOVE IT!
  • My friends rave about this stuff. And when they go out for cocktails they order a vodka&water and add Mio to get some flavor. I haven't had a chance to try it yet, but it seems to be a great alternative to even vodka-soda cocktails.

    I hadn't even thought of that! You must try them, really! They trick you into thinking you're drinking Kool-Aid all day! :-)

    Love these- I add to soda water (but adding some vodka seems like a great idea too! :drinker: )

    They have a new "energy series" I bought but have not tried yet.

    It does trick me into drinking more water. I try to get at least 2-4 of my cups from regular plain water. But mostly the MIO wins out. I drink the fruit punch. Watch out with the energy drinks you CAN over vitamin yourself!

    I don't care for them, they taste like pool water to me... but my husband loves them... and if it gets him to drink something other than soda, I'm all for it.

    I use the great Value brand, Southern Sweet Tea. With the MiO brand, I really like the Berry/Pomegranate one. It is the only way I drink water anymore!!

    I have heard a lot of bad things about this Mio product so I don't use it. But if it helps you drink more water more power to you, just hope there are no long term effects.

    Fruit punch and Strawberry watermelon! I didn't like sweet tea or the energy one that is Black Cherry. Does anyone feel that they aren't as good as regular water? I feel like they can't be as good as water but since i dont like water i'd rather have 4 glasses with MIO than 1 glass of water i choke down and complete with a diet coke. I tried to lookup if they were bad and found nothing negative though! at least it tricks me to drink more water!

    That Mio stuff is pretty good.

    I drink a gallon of water every workday. I tried putting the Mio Energy in to my gallon jug once and was wired all day. Not good.

    I dialed it down to regular Mio.

    You can get it at any grocery store... usually by the kool-aid/lemonade. Here they are about $3.24 (at Target) a package.

    I love both the energy flavors - the green one is my fav. I've also tried the Walmart versions, which are very good! The only ones I don't care for are the lemon, orange and iced tea...all way too sweet.

    That might be the best thing on MFP I've ever learned!!!

    Good luck.....we aren't allowed to mention brand names on this site. I was corrected for mentioning the type of shakes I was using to help with my weight loss.

    I love berry pomegranate but I also like the great value flavors, the sweet tea is better to me than the actual MIO. I have a soda stream and use it to flavor carbonated water sometimes, the kids like it for a treat instead of sugared soda.

    That's not a problem unless you are trying to sell something.

    I've been meaning to try these instead of drinking crystal light all day... Since you guys seem to swear by them I think I'll buy some after work.

    I do the same thing sweet tea is my favorite.
