RE: davinci syrups use? argh

[Guest guest]

Ceep dear...

DaVinci is just wonderful with shaved ice. I also make some diet cocoa.

Swiss Miss makes a diet....not SF...for those of us who still look at

calories, it's 60 vs 25. Anyway, I use the SF marshmallow and hubby

actually likes it!

You may also try the syrups with the sparkling flavored waters. A way to

enhance the flavoring they put in.

And ya know....even at Starbucks when they use the SF syrup, they put in

about 4 squirts to a medium cup of coffee......so I'm thinking the amount of

syrup probably wasn't enough. Too much agua, not enough sugar!

Huggzz,

davinci syrups use? argh

Ok, ewwww, p=tooey, argh, and spit, spit. I tried some berry and some

strawberry davinai sugarfree syrup added to regular water to make flavored

water. AGGGGGHGHGHGHGHHG. AWFUL!!

I was trying to make something low calorie and tasty for my five year old

grandson, who dear, dear child, is already struggling with excess weight. I

had not tasted it, just assuming it would make the water taste slightly

sweet--- so asked him how it was and he said, Yuck Grandma!!! And got this

look on his face like a cross between an old shoe and Freddy Kruger.

Geez. How are we supposed to use these sugarfree syrups if they taaste

crummy

in plain water. Maybe thta's the prob, they are in water?

thanks in advance for any advice. I mean, like I was thinking of making

shaved ice cones with them, but maybe not?

He'd probably have the same reaction to the non-carbonated flavored waters

out there (Fruit2O for example). If you want to make a fun, tasty drink, mix

the syrup with carbonated water and a little ice. I use them with my shaved

ice cones. One of my daughters likes them, the other doesn't (we were using

banana). The chocolate syrup was NOT good on the shaved ice much to their

dismay, but the fruit flavors are.

Oh, yeah! They are great for shaved ice. My favorites are

watermelon, cola, and root beer but I use the berry, peach,

strawberry, and others for shaved ice. I use the hazelnut, irish

creme, and amaretto for coffee and shakes the rest I use just for

shakes. I use most of them from time to time in sparkling water but

just a squirt or so to just give a hint of flavor to the water.
