At the end of a busy day, I love to enjoy a nice cold cocktail as I wind down. But sadly, these days I’m counting calories in an effort to look a teeny bit better in my swimsuit. What’s a girl to do?
Well, thankfully, Crystal Light recently came out with a new line they like to call Mocktails. The three perfect-for-summer flavors include Margarita, Mojito and Appletini and each flavor contains only 5 calories and 0 carbs per serving. They’ll only be on shelves for a limited amount of time so get yours before they’re gone.
Each container has 5 packets which each make a 2-quart pitcher of your desired flavor. All you do is dump, add water, and stir. Viola!
You know me, I have had to turn my Mocktail into a true alcoholic beverage by adding vodka. The taste was pretty close to the real thing, but without all of the sweet guilt. (Gluten-free, too)
You don’t have to add alcohol to your Mocktail. You can just enjoy this as a nice refreshing beverage. If you’re into that.
What beverage do you love to serve your guests in the summer?

Yes, would be great if we could all manage to take responsibility for ourselves in the way you
SAMs club has a pack with all 3- Appletini, Margarita, and Mojito for $9-10. The Mojito is soooooo good.
OMG — I want to try these sooo badly – but everytime I try to pick some up, THEY”RE ALL GONE! Guess everyone ELSE wants to try them, too!!! LOL, I’ll probably finally get my hands on some as summer winds down…….
Really? That is crazy. I know they’re only available for a limited time. I hope you find one!
How much vodka do you use for a pitcher of them? Since it requires 2 quarts (8 cups), how much water, how much vodka? Thanks.
You make the pitcher for the crystal light then add 1-2 oz vodka. A recipe online said 1/8 packet mixed with oz water if you just wanted to make one, then shake with 1.5 oz cold vodka.
Get your butt over here with that!
On my way :0)
I’ve never seen this before- thanks for the post! Also, my friend has to eat Gluten Free so this will be great for her too!
Nikki,
She would love these! The margarita flavor is next up :0)
Sweet!
