Crowd Tap: Sweet & Low sample share

I've been procrastinating blogging my sample shares this month. Getting used to a new work schedule and preparing for baby boy #3's fourth birthday has left me with little free time. Now, here I am with one day left to submit my next two reports! Earlier this month, I posted about how fortunate I have been this month with crowdtap (seriously, sign up now if you haven't yet!) and being selected for sample shares. Every time I do one, I like to post a blog on it to share my experiences.

When the sample share for sweet & low, I was interested in trying it out. My sole experience with sweet & low was when I was on the basket ball team (or maybe cheer leading team? I don't recall which year it was) in middle school. We went to Jade Garden to celebrate something, a rare win, perhaps? I sat with a table of girls and we ate all the sugar packets. Straight up. We ran out of sugar, so went for the sweet & low and equal. In hind sight, not a good plan. While they do an excellent job sweetening up a drink, our 11/12 year old selves did not enjoy eating them!

My mom has also been on a health kick lately. She's lost over 100 pounds by being active and watching her diet (Mom, if you read this, I'm so proud of you!). I knew right away that this sample share would be something she would love to partake in and try out as well. So I immediately hit the sign up button.

Sample share included: a 50 pack for me, recipe cards to try out, and 5 samples to share with friends.

The sample share came with recipe cards for low calorie drinks. I was very intrigued by those. Since I had a play date coming up, I went with the Sunny Citrus Soda to try first.

It was so yummy! It tasted like one of those delicious fruity drinks Ruby Tuesdays often has available. The calorie count and fruit juice made me feel good about drinking it. It was definitely a win in my book. 

I've tried a few different low calorie sweeteners, and so far sweet & low is my favorite. :)

Teen enjoy low-calorie options as well as grown ups!

My mom is so excited to try her sample!
