Boring drink? Put some Flavrz in it!

Can you name a drink that is low in sugar, low in calories, organic, healthy, can be shared with everyone (young and old), and best of all you can add alcohol to it? Well, we couldn't think of one either until now. We'd like to introduce you to our new friend, Flavrz the natural way to flavor all of our drinks. This stuff tastes delicious and unlike other sweeteners, you don't have to worry about any artificial chemicals or flavors. All you do is add you desired amount to water - no mixing, stirring, or shaking required.

The secret to Flavrz's Drink Mix is the use of agave nectar which they helped educate me on:

"Agave is high in fructose and is approximately 1.4 times sweeter than refined sugars. According to scientists from Mexico's tequila producing region say juice extracted from the blue agave plant, best known when distilled into the fiery spirit, may help dieters shed pounds and cut cholesterol. Agave contains, among other things, substances known as fructans, which are thought to reduce cholesterol (and) alter the absorption of fat in the intestine. Inulin, a type of fructan, is a carbohydrate found in many plants, including asparagus. Some scientists believe inulin helps weight loss."

The nutritional info proves it all. This is some powerful stuff and one of their 16 oz glass bottles can last up to 96 servings depending on your desired flavor strength. Flavrz has three flavors to choose from, Lemon Lime, Tropical, and Cherry Berry. We suggest purchasing a 3 pack for $23.97 because it'll last a good while allowing you to jazz up a lot of water.

Plus you can make martini's with it - try out this recipe for a Cherry Berry Martini - perfect for Valentine's Day.

  • Add 1 oz of organic vodka to 1 oz Cherry Berry Flavrz Drink Mix. Shake with ice.
  • Pour in a martini glass and add one organic cherry and one organic strawberry.

For us in LA, Flavrz is currently only available online; but don't worry they have reliable shipping so you can savor their goodness in no time. Our Pretty favorite flavor is Tropical!
