They have many flavors

My Thoughts

Ice is not a new drink in our home. It's one that we generally enjoy. It was my first time trying the grapefruit flavor and I really did like it. This drink has a slight carbonation to it, so it's great for soda drinkers who are looking for a healthier option, but still want something fizzy. It was sweet, but not to the point that I had to not drink it. When looking over the ingredients, there wasn't a long list of them, and most of them were things I recognized, so I felt good about drinking this.

My kids loved it as well. For them, it feels like a real treat since we don't have soda in our household.

It's great that this company has taken one of their drinks and added the breast cancer awareness logo and it donating to the cause. When purchasing this flavor, you can not only get a tasty drink, but also help a great cause.

My Thoughts

These were really good. I was sent a wide range of flavors to try. Each flavor was very tasty but I think the orange mango was my favorite. If you like carbonation in your drinks but are avoiding sodas, these are a good pick. Makes you feel like you're having a treat without the calories or bad stuff in it.

My kids were a big fan of these drinks as well. They've had a brand similar to these, but I don't think they were as clean as Cascade Ice. These are caffeine free, sodium free, calorie free, and gluten free. And the company has over 31 different drinks to choose from, so you're sure to find one you like.

I didn't feel like the drinks left a bad after taste. I did like the flavor of most of them, but they aren't going to taste like juice and getting used to a sparkling drink might take a few sips, but then it comes more enjoyable and good.

Over all, I really liked these drinks and will pick them up for my family again so when we want something other than plain water to drink, we have another option.

Cascade Ice flavored sparkling waters are free of calories, sugar, sodium and gluten, making them a delicious and refreshing alternative to sugary juices and sodas.

The Pomegranate Punch is a great alternative to traditional party punch. Simply pour 4 parts Cascade Ice Pomegranate Berry over ice. Then, mix mint leaves, the juice of 1 lime and 1 part club soda together. Combine with Cranberry Pomegranate and you're ready to serve!

This one's for the kids! Instead of serving soda for dinner, try the Apple Cinnamon Sparkler. Simply mix 4oz of Cascade Ice McIntosh Apple and 2oz of apple juice in a glass with ice. Add a green apple wedge and a cinnamon stick to complete the yummy drink.

My thoughts:

My first taste of the Cascade Ice Sparkling Water,   and I was hooked on it.  I tried the Cranberry Pomegranate, Lemonade, Pomegranate and McIntosh Apple.  Although I liked them all, my favorite flavor is the McIntosh Apple, as is my daughter's. My son who never likes to try anything, tried the Cranberry Pomegranate and liked it.  I absolutely love that my daughter and son drink something that tastes good and is sugar-free, caffeine-free, sodium-free and gluten-free.

Cascade Ice comes in 21 delicious flavors, Peach Mango, Strawberry Banana, Raspberry Lemonade, just to name a few. Not only are they delicious, they are zero-calorie.  Which is a major perk for me, as I like to exercise, and these taste great on ice. They are available in 50 states and can be purchased in Albertson's and Walmart and many more retailers.   There are also some great recipes such as:

Cascade Ice Coconut Chiller:

8oz Cascade Ice Coconut
Sparkling Water
4 maraschino cherries
1 1/2 oz pineapple juice
