I don't know what all is in it, but try the diet Lipton Green Teas. They have berry, citrus, and a couple others.
Can you have (freshly squeezed) fruit juice, it has no added sugar. Or what about water with slice lemon in it, or Iced tea.
natural fruit juices, no sugar added
Caffeine free iced tea
milk
You can drink Crystal Lite drinks. They have decaffinated flavors if that is a concern to you.
Either that or just put some lemon or ginger in your water.
Good Luck & last summer we got into Fruit 2-0 drinks, but I cannot say how much sugar if any is in them...and the flavors are yummy, but mild...
Unsweetened soy milk is good. It's got protein, low carbs, no carbonation or caffeine. It's the perfect drink. Make sure it's unsweetened organic.
- Crystal Light
- Orange Juice, Apple Juice (they have natural sugars)
- green tea
- lemonade made with splenda
- milk
- chocolate milk
- alcohol (i don't suggest it, but it fits the criteria)
- kool aid made with splenda
- gatorade/powerade
There are many good teas out there that are caffine free and are awesome. If you're like me and find making tea all the time tedious, make it iced. Buy loose leaf teas - if you do not have a tea shop or good health food store, there is a decent selection at grocery stores now. I use about 1/4 cup tea to 2 cups water, but adjust to your tastes. Mix in a glass pitcher (to avoid picking up flavors from previous beverages) at supper time and refridgerate overnight - strain in the morning. Can you have splenda? If so, sweeten to taste! Enjoy. I have several loose teas on hand and many are fruit teas that have intense fruity flavors. They might be good to curb any cravings you may have as well. My friend is on a fairly strict diet and I make these for him all the time. He loves my Long Island Strawberry green tea! Good luck and I wish you lots of success!
Try herbal tea- there is an amazing variety out there, and most of them do not contain caffeine. You can find apple cinnamon, vanilla, chamomil, mint, peach, plum, ginger, and many other kind of tea in any store. They are also great chilled or with ice, and taste good without any sugar.
Water with a splash of fruit juice is also good, and I think it tastes way better than propel and other flavored waters. Try limeade, lemonade, etc (if you do not add sugar, they have close to 0 calories). Also, if you try to avoid added sugar, but are allowed to eat fruit sugar, homemade smoothies without cream and added sugar are a great snack and a way to get some hydration. Strawberry (or any berry) is awesome. I like strawberry banana, but I am sure you can find a ton of recipes out there.
