A Twist To Diet Drinks!!!

A Sweet Idea


I have been trying to lower the calorie intake these days by focusing on a healthier diet. And while I am doing this, I seem to always have a craving for sweets. Now, I normally was never a big soda drinker, but lately I have been experimenting on ways to improve diet drinks. Occasionally I love to sip on an ice cold beverage such as a diet root beer or another type of diet soda. Then I discovered a way to sweeten up diet drinks with more flavor and not many more calories.

I love flavored coffee. I love the Coffee-mates by Nestlé. I have tried many flavors but my favorite is the Vanilla flavored cream. You can find these delicious accessories in the dairy section of most supermarkets. So, I decided to take the Vanilla cream and add it to a diet root beer I was drinking. I was instantly hooked. It tasted as if I was drinking a root beer float. It foamed up, and it was delicious and very refreshing. So I didn’t stop there. The next time I drank a Coke Zero and added it and it was the best Vanilla Coke I have tasted. The cream is low calorie already and is great for coffees, but adding it to sodas is even a better treat. It does not take much and a little does go along way. So, I wanted to share this delicious idea with many others who trying to slim down and watch their calorie intake. My next diet soda I want to try this with is some type of orange soda. I’m hoping to catch the wonderful flavor of a crème sickle. I hope you all who drink diet drinks try this out. It is a special treat that makes you feel as if you were cheating on your diet.

Awesome and interesting idea, Fullerman. But if you are trying to eat healthier, (and not trying to criticize here, this has just been my experience), you might want to think about dropping soda altogether, as diet soda in my opinion is worse for your health than the regular. Why? The aspartame. The sh*t's poison. It's better for your overall health to have a regular soda every couple of days than to drink a diet soda or two every day. Read up on the long term effects of aspartame intake. Thanks...I voted up and awesome though! :)

Hi Fullerman - this is a pretty clever idea. You should market this to Coca Cola! You'd probably make a fortune. Thanks for sharing your idea with us, I'm going to try this out and share it with my friends. Voting up!
