I'd like to make lemonade and suchlike juice drinks,
but on a low sugar diet. Lemonade without sugar won't
go over real big -

Any suggestions for other sweeteners? Stevia or whatever -

If you go stevia, may as well go with any diet drink. Wife likes Zero xxx water and Propel.

I like sweetzfree liquid the best. it's very sweet with just using a few
drops in things like lemonade etc. It's not real cheap but lasts a long
time, with no nasty aftertaste in cooking. I'm still working on a bottle I
got over a year ago.

Splenda/sucralose powder. Get the ones in the individual packets and experiment with 8 oz or so of lemonade to see if you can work with that first. If that works, get a bag of the pure sucralose power, not the bulked out powder. You can then drink lemonade until your teeth just gets eroded away from the acid.

I won't touch Stevia and am not fond of Splenda. I would just put lemon
juice in water but I like it like that.

One or less. I am transitioning over to only tea and water. Soda has gotten
too expensive.

How much is too expensive? This week Coke products are on sale, a 12
pack of 12oz cans is $4 and B2G1... that's 36 cans for $8, or 22.2¢
per can. I typically drink 1-2 cans per day, I don't consider that
expensive. Oh, and there's 5¢ deposit on each can but I bring them
back and my deposit is returned.

Week before last my Kroger had Coke and ALL it's varieties on sale for 4
12-packs for $12.00. Three bucks a 12-pack ain't bad but I was sooooo
darn tired I did not take advantage of that sale. GRRRRRRRRR, but they
should be on sale again soon then I'll swoop in and buy 4 12-packs.

No deposit here on cans or bottles but they are rinsed before going into
my recycle bin.

Regular price here is ax high as $6-7 for a 12 pack. I can occasionally find
a sale of 4/$12 but you must buy 4 to get the sale price. Angela and I
usually buy them together like that as neither of us needs 4 at a time. She
prefers Pepsi though and I won't touch that. Mostly the sale price is buy
two at regular price and get one free. There was a sale of buy two and get
three free but I *really* didn't want to buy 5! I got a 2 liter for 99
cents but I don't like to buy those either. It's okay if I have people over
but they don't fit in my fridge very well and they tend to go flat once
opened.

It was around 1977 that a 6-pack of soda went over $.99. It remember that it felt like a milestone had been broken and things would never be the same again. That's the breaks.

I like coke zero sugar but the phosphoric acid in it is bad for the kidneys.

Kroger had Pepsi/Coke 12 packs and all their variations on sale this week,
3 for $10 and I picked up one grape and 2 diet caffeine-free Cokes. I missed
the 4 for $12 a couple weeks ago so I jumped on this one.

Well there you go.

I never bought much pop when I was a kid. We didn't need to because our
neighbour was an executive with Canada Dry and kept us well supplied.
However, I seem to recall there were two sizes of pop, one selling for
10cents and the other was 12 cents.
