Well,
I started on my quest for a replacement for coffee, which I am increasingly drinking almost daily. or at least was, up until about six weeks ago. I have very good reasons for not drinking coffee, but none good enough to actually stop. My health wasn’t even at the top. My teeth are. I like having bright white teeth. But now, they are kinda dingy. I don’t want to use whiteners. bleach, and silica. Uh, Nah, I’ll pass. peroxide I can deal with, in small quantities. baking soda, even, but not on a regular basis. I am afraid, this will make me sensitive to cold stuff. O.K. is my O.C. showing?

Anyhoo, I need to get back off the white stuff. It has got a serious anchor hold on my family. not only is it in everything, but I put it in stuff that it’s not in. Even my fiancee consumes more sugar when I’m around.

I am taking supplements, and eating very well, considering my circumstances. I want a little kick now and again. I need it, to keep up with a six year old, a business, and other sundry activities. I have tried at least six energy drinks. Very modest compared to most I know, but for a 37 year old mom, this is probably average. I hated most with a deathly passion. I could only take a couple of sips, if that. they range from sickly sweet, tasting like cold medicine, to feeling gritty, and having a horrible aftertast. one tasted like roots and berries thrown in some grape juice. I tried a coffee one, and don’t remember feeling any different. I found one I liked the taste of, but it didn’t DO anything.

I got 10 packs of Crave along with some other neat stuff for XMas. I am down to two. The first time I tried it, I mixed it in a bottle of water, it’s powdered like the crystal light sticks. It’s got Stevia in it, which I tried, but don’t use much. It is really really much sweeter than sugar.

I started drinking on it, and the taste didn’t gag me. I actually drank on it off and on for about 30 minutes.

I did feel a little buzzing in my body all over, but not shaky. just more energy. I felt really good that day, but I was wondering could i get used to the taste.

The next time I mixed up, I used more water. about 20 ounces for the whole pack, two servings. You know you cant just drink 8 ounces of a drink. I usually drink two servings at a time, so I guess I am drinking two energy drinks a day. Hmmm, I hadn’t thought about that.
Well, I dont drink it all at once, and sometimes I have some left in the morning.
By now(I only have two packs left, that’s 4 drinks I guess) I am dipping the pack in the water to make sure I get it all out, and sucking on it just in case I didn’t. I think it tastes good. I guess you just have to drink it a couple of times. I dont like gatorade, so don’t count on my tastes. I usually have to have a ton of sugar in stuff to drink it, but I don’t drink soda, and nothing diet for me. that stuff will kill ya! And make you fat!

That’s my two cents( more like two dollars) and there you go. my first review, and a little long, but I guess it toook that.

Hope you like it too, and heres to getting most of your stuff done with a little help.
