Zero-calorie fruit punch recipe

I have been trying to cut back on my sugar intake for health reasons. You see, I have an unnatural fear of developing diabetes and ending up on dialysis. Since beginning this endeavor, I have lost 5 pounds and have more energy. One of my favorite things to curb my craving for sweets is this zero-cal fruit punch.

I combine the following:

3 squirts of strawberry/watermelon Mio Liquid Water Enhancer (enough to cover the bottom of a 12-ounce glass)
2 teaspoons of lemon juice
12 ounces of cold water


You have to stir it up pretty well or else all of the Mio ends up on the bottom. At night, I also add 12 ice cubes. It is very tasty and quite refreshing.
