Spiked Cranberry Lemonade With A Fizzy Kick

This post has been facilitated by Zevia but my love for the fizzy drink is all my own!

Last month while attending the WOW Summit here in Florida I had the opportunity to connect with Zevia and attend one of their workshops which focused on holiday entertaining. You may remember the zero calorie soda from my Strawberry Soda Cupcake recipe in which I used it to infuse my batter. It has been satisfying my bubbly beverage cravings for years now with its plethora of flavors and varieties. Since these natural sodas contain zero artificial sweeteners I don’t feel guilty drinking these regularly. Zevia sodas make for the perfect drink all year round but they can also add a kick to any cocktail during the holidays.

Strawberry Soda Cupcakes + Zevia GIVEAWAY #ZeviaStyle #MomsMeet

Disclosure: I received this product for free from the sponsor of the Moms MeetSM program, May Media Group LLC. All opinions are my own.

SODA. The one word that makes some parents cringe in fear! Packed with sugar and empty calories, it isn’t a favorite for many parents like myself. While it clearly isn’t a beverage of choice, it sure is hard to steer clear of its path.  Let’s face it, soda is EVERYWHERE these days. It’s offered at restaurants, fast food facilities, vending machines, sporting events, and even at our children’s schools. I even spotted a soda machine outside of a day care classroom last year! The constant reminder that it is available at all times makes it difficult for parents to control what their kids are consuming during snack and lunch time. This is why I have switched my focus to a “smarter” soda that gives the same bubbly satisfaction minus the artificial sweeteners and calories. Say hello to Zevia!

Zevia: All Natural Soda Review & Giveaway

If your are like me and have been trying to kick your unhealthy soda habit for quite some time, then this review is just for you! Last year I came across the new ZERO CALORIE soda sweetened with the all natural sweetener- Stevia. Zevia has completely satisfied my soda cravings for a good year now. You don’t have to worry about artificial sweeteners or drinking your calories because Zevia contains all natural ingredients. I think that Zevia is an excellent alternative to drinking normal soda. It has the same amount of fizz minus the unnecessary sugar.
Looking back, I wish I would have known about Zevia all natural soda when I was pregnant with Toodie. One of the worst things I did during my pregnancy was consume too much Coke and Dr Pepper! Later on this led to me having a severe gall bladder attack which resulted in surgery. Not fun!
Zevia sent me quite a few flavors to sample and I was really excited to see the variety. The only Zevia sodas I have tried prior to receiving these were Cream Soda and Caffeine Free Cola. I normally purchase Zevia from my local Whole Foods and had no idea that there were so many different kinds available.
 The first flavor I chose to try was Grapefruit Citrus. I expected the soda to come out a pinkish color but it was in fact clear like most of them. I made sure to place all of the cans in the refrigerator prior to drinking so that they would be nice and cold! It is recommended that you drink Zevia ice cold to achieve the best taste. Zevia also suggests you drink the soda from the can as opposed to a cup- to avoid it getting flat quickly. I happened to really enjoy the Grapefruit Citrus flavor. It was tangy, fruity, and had the right amount of citrus.
So far my favorite flavors are the Orange and Dr. Zevia. They both taste like regular soda with a little kick! Now that I am aware that Zevia offers so many different flavors I am going to be on the look out during my next Whole Foods trip. Zevia also just release three new flavors- Strawberry, Lime Cola, and Cherry Cola. They are so good I just want to try them all!
