Crush Singles To Go Powder Packets, Water Drink Mix, Orange, Non-Carbonated, Sugar Free Sticks, 6 Count per box, 0.55 Ounce (PACK OF 36)

I used to buy the original version of this product. It had zero carbs and tasted great. For some reason the manufacturer decided to change the flavor (anyone remember new coke?) and both ruined the taste and added 2 grams of carbs. For me that makes this product a no go. I used to be a loyal Crush drinker, but now I have to find something else to replace it.

I have been using Crush for many, many years and I have always loved the flavor. Recently I was unable to findany to purchase for a few weeks but I finally was able to get a new supply. I was so happy that I ordered2 boxes of the product. I did not realize that they had changed the formula when I first used it in my water.When I tasted it I could tell immediately that it had been changed and not for the better. I personally think it'stastes terrible now.Needless to say I now have 2 boxes and have no idea of what to do with them because I certainly will not be usingthem in my bottled water now. I am sure plenty of people will enjoy the new taste but I'm sorry to say I am notone of them. I am disappointed because this was the only flavor I used in my bottled water.

I bought the Orange Crush last week and tried for the first time. It was pretty good but I thought it was missing something. First thing I though of was adding a Vanilla taste to it and I was exactly right. It now takes that little stronger orange taste away and makes it a cream-sicle or dream-sickle taste!! What a big difference by just adding 3-4 drops of imitation vanilla. Give it a try.. it's now my favorite drink off all-time. By the way, you can probably use this formula with different water packs... I haven't tried them yet, I am stuck on my new Orange Crush > Cream Sickle drink.

[UPDATE: When I wrote the original review back in mid-May, the price was around$12 for 12 boxes. That was equal to the shelf price you would see in a physical retailoutlet. Now, it's over $30... which is 2 1/2 times the shelf price. So, I won't be orderingthis item anymore. Guess I'll just have to adjust to the "new, better taste".]The new formula you see on your store shelves (marked "new better taste") hasa more sugary taste with a heavier citrus tartness to it. THIS is the older formula,which is sweet and yet smooth in flavor. Which is exactly what I was hoping for.And the price at around 99 cents per box is also competitive with what you willfind on your local store shelves.So five-stars for both product and price! So glad to see the older formula is stillaround for awhile.

These were fine, but I just bought some from somewhere else, and let me say, they changed the box; they changed the flavor. They're too sweet. I'm going to assume that they're not doing 2 different flavors of orange, with Amazon getting a good 1 and this other store getting a bad 1, so I will not be ordering these again.

I own a Sodastream machine and finding syrups that are worth drinking is becoming more difficult. They used to make a pretty good diet orange until changed their formula and reduced the amount you get in a bottle. One day saw these and figured what i got to loss, 87 cents is Walmart. I like it taste just like Sunkist orange you buy in the bottles and each packet treats 16 oz. Of seltzer. Only takes 2 packets to make 1 lt. Bottle of orange soda and doesn't take long to dissolve completely. Now when i feel like orange soda just pull this off the shelf and i got it, sugar free.

So I'm supposed to drink like 90 ounces of water a day, which is near damn impossible unless I add something to it. With the orange and the grape crush are my absolute favorites and I have literally tried every single zero sugar variety out there. We now order these by the boxful they are very reasonably priced that way. The seller is very fast, and I now have the set up on subscription to enjoy the best price possible. We probably drink about a gallon Or two a day in our household. I do like the fact that they are no sugar but I do not like the fact that they are aspartame. I wish there was a better way to sweeten them. I think they could probably work on that as an improvement, but for the time being it has helped me to move from Diet Coke

Have you tried this with carbonated water? It exponentially increases the tastes of this mix drink. It doesn't taste exactly like Crush Orange but it comes slightly close with the carbonated water.With water, it tastes like an opened-1 week old bottle of Crush Orange. Which is fine by me in tastes but the carbonation is gone. It does taste quite better once you add ice to the drink mix though.
