Is Crystal Light Like Kool-Aid?
I was wondering if the diet soft drink Crystal Light is anything like Kool-Aid.
I've been wanting to try it but I'm not sure of the taste. Does it taste good or bad. I think Crystal Light is still available in stores here in Texas. |

I haven't tried Crystal Light since it's introduction (yikes - almost 30 years ago now) but as I recall, Kool-Aid is more kiddy "candy" fruit flavors, whereas Crystal Light is more "adult" fruit flavors - lighter if you know what I mean. More like cooler without the alcohol. If memory serves....(and as long as they haven't changed the formula too much). |

It's sugar-free and almost calorie free. I drink it, but it's not very satisfying. It's like a diet version of Country Time Lemonade.
They've got raspberry flavor which I guess is sort of like Kool-Aid. Most of the flavors are more like lemonade. |

Oh NO wonder I like Kool-Aid better - I forgot that it's a diet drink mix! (refer to thread about TAB!!)

I LOVE Crystal Light (I also love Wylers Light). My favorite thing now is the little individual packets you can pour into a bottle of water and mix your own.

I think Crystal Light is awesome! It has a bit of an after taste, though, so if you're not used to "diet" type drinks, then it might be too much for you. I personally love it- Peach is a good one
