Zevia Zero Sugar Soda, Black Cherry, 16 oz Cans (12-Pack) – Naturally Sweetened, Non-GMO Project Verified, Gluten-Free, Vegan

It is great.. refreshing and no harmful artificial sweetening.

I really enjoy this drink. A great solution to cut back on sugar. A great way to skip artificial sugars as well. This is one of my favorite flavors.

I was afraid the new salted caramel flavor would just be a more expensive Zevia Cream Soda, a flavor of theirs I THOUGHT I would love but that just always tastes flat and unsatisfying to me whenever I try to "bond" with it. No. The Salted Caramel is in a whole new universe of flavor. I would describe it this way: Zevia Cream Soda = the sweet watery tears of dieting scented with the fumes of "Cream" as created by someone who has never tasted a creamy thing in their life. Zevia Salted Caramel = Liquid butterscotch candy minus the guilt but plus the dopamine. Yes, it's a bit heavyhanded on the sweetness and I find I enjoy it more slightly diluted but that's ok with me because it just means one can goes further and the flavor is still super potent.

It tastes good for zero sugar soda, but knowing stevia, there is a bitter after taste.

The CONCEPT of this soda is wonderful. My husband and I made the switch to stevia sweetener for coffee and breakfast cereals years ago. We try as hard as we can to avoid purchasing anything with sucralose in it. There are no "diet" drinks in our house. So, it's usually water and water only (to drink cold) for us. But, of course, like most people, we sometimes get tired drinking nothing but water. Once in a blue moon, we will buy full sugar Root Beer as a treat. (Delicious, but ack! SO much sugar!!!) The bottom line is... we REALLY, REALLY wanted to love this soda! We tried the Black Cherry and the Root Beer. However, in both our opinions, it simply tastes TOO SWEET. Yes, even compared to traditional Root Beer that has 44 GRAMS of sugar in each serving. We experimented a bit. If we mixed this soda with plain, carbonated seltzer at about a ratio of 80/20 or 70/30, it was perfect! It tasted just like the real thing. Simply Fantastic. But, that extra step makes it complicated to pour a glass to drink, and further makes it impossible to simply grab a can and walk out the door. I was truly hoping this brand was the future, at least for us. We certainly wish the manufacturer would consider tweaking it. We can only hope... and try it again in a couple years. ~Laura C.
