Day 58: Sweet Things

I just discovered the best thing this week.  Okay, maybe not the BEST thing, but it's awfully good!  I tried Torani Sugar-Free syrups for the first time.  They are SO good!

0 calories, 0 fat, 0 sugar

...and delicious!

So far I have had the sugar-free raspberry mixed into my hot cocoa mix.  I also added the chocolate to a 7-up.  I know, it sounds a bit odd, but it tasted great!  I also plan on making a black & white soda using the chocolate, white chocolate and mixing it with water from my Soda Stream machine.  Unfortunately I lost the bottle to the machine, so I have to order one from Amazon before I can whip up that drink.

The first drink I had with the Torani was the raspberry hot cocoa.  It was so good, I actually had to check the bottle to make sure I hadn't accidentally picked up the non sugar-free kind.  Seriously.

The bottles come in a variety of sizes.  I bought a couple 5 ounce bottles to try, but I will go back and buy either the 12 or 24 ounce sizes.  They were pretty pricey on Amazon for the individual bottles, but there is a variety pack of 6 24 oz. bottles for a little under $40.  I bought mine at Cost Plus.  The small (5 oz.) bottles were $2.99 and the large (24 oz) bottles were $7.99.  Not too bad really.  You only need about a tablespoon or two added to a drink, so the large bottles should last a while.

Oh... and the Torani website also has recipe ideas that can help you figure out how to use the syrups.  Yum!
