Default Has anyone ever tried....

the crystal light water packages, the come in singles and in 2 litres packages. I love them, I could never drink enough water, now that I've found these it makes it so much easier. Some of them are too sweet, so I make one package last for 2 bottles of water.



New to this site so Hi to everyone!

They're amazing! I bring them with me on trips too because they're so easy to pack. It helps me avoid soda when I'm sick of the taste of water.

I love them when I travel too! They are ESPECIALLY great when I fly. I take an empty water bottle through security, and then use them with water from the drinking fountain.

I like using them to get myself to drink enough water. I use one of the little packets in a big 1.5 liter water bottle and it still tastes great! I think it's WAY too sweet/concentrated in a 20oz bottle (and the packet does say that it's two serving sizes).

I dig the lemonade and raspberry lemonade!

Wink there's also other kinds....

Hey there!

There are Lipton Iced Tea ones too.... They are sugar free (Sweetened with Splenda). I can't have aspertame or any artificial sweeteners (except Splenda) because they cause migraines....

And....if you just want lemon water or lime water, there are these packets of "dried" lemon and lime flavoring called True Lemon and True Lime and they are amazing!!!

I use the True Lime in my water all the time because it is just so yummy!!!

Hope that helps!!!

I love these packets. My faves are the peach tea and the raspberry lemonade...I usually use one packet in my Nalgene bottel though or it is a bit too sweet.

Where did you buy the True Lemon and True Lime? That's exactly what I'm looking for- do you think I can get it at Whole Foods? I hate drinking plain water, and I've had to give up Vitamin Water after taking a closer look at the serving size and realizing just how many calories I was drinking. I'll have to check out the crystal lights too- it sounds like there are more flavors than I thought- anyone know if they come in a variety pack?

I Crystal Light. Last night, I tried mixing Lemonade and Raspberry Ice, hoping for a Raspberry Lemonade flavor and it worked! So nummy. But don't use two whole packages of each! I did all of the lemonade and half of the raspberry in a 24 oz. bottle and it was so yummy ummy in the tummy.
