Since I am post bariatric surgery I am mindful of what I eat and drink. I drink a lot of water. I like some variety, because even when you like to drink water the taste of plain flavor all the time can get a bit old. The idea of a tasty natural low calorie flavored water is very appealing to me. I’ve tried a number of the individual serving packets that you add to water. Some of them have a funny aftertaste, courtesy of the artificial flavors and sweeteners. Crystal Light recently came out with a new product that I’ve been enjoying very much – Crystal Light Pure Fitness.
Crystal Light Pure Fitness comes in three flavors – grape, lemon line and strawberry kiwi. Each packet is one serving and is only 15 calories. Instead of being flavored with artificial sweeteners, this beverage mix is sweetened with evaporated can juice and Truvia, an all-natural sweetener that comes from the stevia plant. It also contains electrolytes to help you stay hydrated during your busy day.

I received samples of all three flavors. The mix is easy to use, just add it to a 16.9 ounce bottle of water and shake. The powder disperses nicely, I haven’t experienced any clumps. (I did one in a glass because the bottle pictures didn’t come out well.)

It was close but my favorite is the grape, followed by the lemon-lime. Interestingly enough I think it tastes much better than regular Crystal Light. The flavor is good without being sickly sweet and it doesn’t have that chemical aftertaste that many artificially sweetened beverage mixes have. I recommend this highly. It’s ideal for anyone that works, exercises, travels or is just busy.
Crystal Light Pure Fitness is available in grocery stores nationwide. One box contains seven packets and retails for $3.29.
You can find Crystal Light on Facebook and Twitter.
