I don’t think I have reviewed a lot of drink options on this blog. Probably because there are so many options out there, and nothing beats that of a nice glass of water for your diet. That and coffee. However I was sent a package of Everly All Natural drink mix to try and I thought it would be worth sharing my thoughts.
I was sent the Everly Peach Mango mix to try. It contains no sugar and is sweetened with Stevia which is great. It has a bunch of B Vitamins in it so I guess it makes it good for you too in some respects. Simply take out the packet of powder and mix it with close to 17oz of cold water and "shake it like you mean it."
The taste was not as sweet as I hoped, but I think they focus more on it being a flavored water then a juice or punch replacement. It had a bit of a vitamin taste which I was able to get used to after a drink or two. It wasn’t quiet as peach flavored as I hoped but it's not bad. I just may have been expecting something sweeter. Overall its an ok drink. I wasn’t that impressed with it and I didn’t think I had to run to the store because this will revolutionize the way I drink my water. But that’s just me.
Despite what the taste is like, the purpose of this drink is the best part. Every time someone buys a box or Everly, they donate a portion of the proceeds to their non profit partner Colalife who in turn "uses those funds to provide packets of life-saving rehydration mixes (Oral Rehydration Salts) to mothers in rural Zambia. Those mothers use the rehydration mixes to treat their babies when they're sick with waterborne disease, saving them from death by dehydration."
That is pretty cool. I mean if you are going to drink something like this type of product, why not make a difference with it.
