Zevia Natural Sodas Review and Giveaway!

With all the junk additives to foods lately, I find myself leaning more and more towards items that are more natural. We are not totally all-natural consumers but when I find something natural that my entire family enjoys, I go for it!

I was extremely pleased to sample Zevia sodas with my children. They are all-natural, no calorie sodas flavored with Stevia. If you think you have never used Stevia, you might be wrong as many lip protection products are also sweetened with it. Stevia is an herb native to South and Central America, and grown now in Asia. For centuries, native Americans of Paraguay and Brazil called it “sweet leaf” and used it to sweeten foods. Stevia helps with dental hygiene, recent studies found it has antioxidant properties and other health benefits, and it contains no calories.

Zevia sodas are also sweetened with a product called Erythritol, a natural sweetener found in many fruits and vegetables.

It is extracted from those sources by a natural fermentation process. The erythritol in Zevia® exists in the same form – unchanged – as it does in plants and vegetables. Although erythritol is classified as a sugar alcohol, erythritol does not cause the gastrointestinal issues associated with other polyols like xylitotl, malitol, and sorbitol.

We were sent for review the six can mixed pack containing one each:

1. Zevia® Natural Cola
2. Zevia® Natural Ginger Root Beer
3. Zevia® Natural Orange
4. Zevia® Natural Twist (lemon-lime)
5. Zevia® Natural Black Cherry
6. Zevia® Natural Ginger Ale

All of the sodas were delicious and only had a slight “different” taste. It’s not really a diet taste, actually, it is hard to explain. Because you are not tasting high-fructose corn syrup, aspartame and all the other nasty regular soda ingredients, you might imagine a diet taste but it’s actually just a nice sweet taste. The sodas are just plain yummy! I can NOT drink regular diet sodas because they leave a horrible aftertaste and trigger my migraines. I had no problem at all with Zevia. They tasted great and didn’t cause a single headache but I  was still able to enjoy a 0 calorie soda. My absolute favorite was the Black Cherry. It has the nicest Black Cherry flavor with out being too sweet. It is delicious! My children loved all of the flavors and I had a hard time keeping them out of them so I could taste each one. They were devoured quickly. My son is an avid root beer fan and he said that he LOVED the Ginger Root Beer and was upset that we didn’t have more.
