Fun new way to flavor water!

Being that grocery shopping is pretty much one of my hobbies post-op (seriously, I friggin' love it), I really enjoy going up and down the aisles and looking at what all they have to offer me. 

I saw these neato little things today...Mio liquid water enhancer.

Oooh, space-agey. 

Anyhow, I thought it was a neat little idea.  I'm trying strawberry watermelon right now.  It's decent tasting.  Not earth shattering, but I like it plenty to try the other flavors.

Anyways, I like it because:
1.  It's liquid.  Which means no stabilizers/maltodextrin from powdered packets.  I also don't have to wait for anything to dissolve, which I always have a problem with on some of the crystal light packs.

2.  It's self-serve!  No pre-measured packets!  I can use as little or as much as I want.  I think one packet of crystal light is WAY too much for 16 oz of water, but then I find it's not enough for my big huge water bottle.

Oh, and of course...no sugar or carbs. :)

I just saw those at HEB!  I didn't buy them but now I'm gonna!  LOL  As long as there's one person out there who likes them.  I'm like you...Crystal Light is a little much for me.  Very strong flavor.  I like water that's lightly flavored...no aftertaste.

Come to our party on April 1st!!!

I saw those at Wal-mart also.  I'm seriously addicted to the Wal-mart brand crystal light grape flavor so I probably won't try them.  If they had a grape flavor I'd be ALL OVER IT tho.

They do have a grape one! :)

I love the walmart brand crystal light.  They are the only brand that makes apple and I always have to stock up and buy like 3 or 4 boxes every time I am there.  I was always such an apple juice girl.

I didn't see the grape one.  I'll have to look more closely.  And I'm laughing at your "stocking up" with 3 or 4 boxes.  I "stock up" with 2 or 3 sleeves... That's 12-18 boxes!!!  Tonight they only had 2 boxes of grape left.  It is a popular flavor.  grrr.

I just bought these yesterday. Haven't tried it yet though but they were too cool looking to pass up.

Does it say what AS they have in them?  Crystal Light gives me terrible belly aches, so I'd need to know what AS is in it before I buy.
