Lunch today was hurried, as it is on most Mondays. Between conference calls I headed down to the little cafe in my building and ordered a grilled cheese on wheat.
Quick and easy.
I opted not to get a diet soda as normal, because with all the meetings I have today the last thing I needed was to be getting up to pee every 15 minutes.
So instead, I grabbed a new drink - and boy am I glad I did!
What caught my eye was the flavor: black raspberry. Different - I like different.
At the time, given that I was in a rush, I just thought this was flavored water. But to my surprise, it's lightly carbonated! I'm not normally a fan of carbonated beverages out of a bottle (yes, I know it's weird, but it's strong sometimes, and a little overwhelming with all the bubbles), though that wasn't the case with this drink.
It's yummy and sweet and refreshing - paired perfectly with a grilled cheese sandwich!
What's even better, is that it's sweetened with Splenda. I've been trying to stay about from aspartame (though it's difficult with diet soda) so this was a huge plus for me.
I'm also a huge fan of the slender bottle, works great for sticking it in a bag or purse and taking it on the go. In fact, I'm likely going to save this bottle to refill once the Sparkling Ice is gone...
...which is likely going to be soon. I can't put this stuff down.
Try out all the other yummy flavors they have and be sure to let us know how much you love them!
Cheers!
