For those of you who crave soda, you must check out
Zevia. It's a natural soda that's sweetened with stevia and erythritol. This means that it's low glycemic and has no sugars or artificial sweeteners. Stevia is a plant that's much sweeter than sugar, and erythritol is a sugar alcohol that doesn't affect blood sugar or cause gastric distress as it is readily absorbed by the body. Plus this zero calorie beverage has only 10 grams of carbs, and 15 mg of sodium, making it a great choice for those trying to lose weight.
My two favorites are ginger root beer and ginger ale. Since trying it though I've noticed that they have new flavors like black cherry and dr. stevia. Hmmm, I imagine that's something like dr. pepper. While I enjoy a nice cool glass of water, every now and then it's nice to have a flavored carbonated beverage to quench my thirst.
