Default Diet Fruit Punch

I can't seem to find a diet fruit punch. Crystal Lite used to have a good fruit punch but I can't find it anymore; at least in the New York area. Does anyone know why Hawaiian Punch doesn't have a diet version? If they had-I'd buy it by the case.

Have any of you found a diet fruit punch

Thanks,
Al

Uh oh...I love that Crystal Lite punch. I'm in NY too and I didn't notice that it's not around. I have quite a stash still left over from the summer. Stop & Shop supermarkets usually have it. Are you near one of those?

Hi Janey:

Thanks for the reply. I'm in Long Island too -Elmont. I'm not familiar with Stop & Shop but would be willing to travel to one if they have Crystal Lite Fruit Punch. Do you know of any Stop & Shop's in Nassau County?

Thanks,
Al

One other note: Crystal light (in its powder form) contains aspertame, which has been known to stall some people, the ready to drink crystal light liquid is fine according to atkins center.

Diet V-8 Splash seems to have a fruit punch like flaveor. I like the Tropical blend better than the Berry.

Default Kool Aid!

There is a Kool Aid SF that comes in packets...it is half Nutrasweet half AceK...I've got here in SoCal in fruit punch and while traveling in Olympia, WA found it in Cherry and Berry. It's tasty and reminds of when I was a kid.

Another thing you can try is the unsweetened Kool Aid and mix Splenda...you do get the filler carbs, though. I've also added packets of unsweetened Kool Aid to a bottle of 7up, which gives you fruit punch soda. Also delish, but do it in a pitcher because the soda explodes a little when the powder hits it.

Another similar beverage, though not Fuit Punch, is SF Tang powdered mix. Its hard to find sometimes. It comes in little cannisters with those tubs like crystal light. Its closest you can get to Orange Juice. Sometimes I just crave juice when I get a cold and this hits the spot.
