I’ve long enjoyed Fresca for its light but crisp grapefruit. Now, we’re finding we drink it a little more often, as opposed to drinking lots of other sodas.
It seems to be an OK drink on keto, in moderation of course. It has 1g carb per 12oz. serving. It’s sweetened with aspartame, which isn’t the best and some May choose to avoid.
Where we have found Fresca to be wonderful, is as a mixer for drinks. @CVargo suggested mixing gin with Fresca for an alternate take on a gin & tonic. Sounded weird, but I was pleasantly surprised by the taste.
Now, we have discovered something even better. It was Amber’s creation, and I was shocked how good it was. A Fresca Margarita. Simply: Fresca, tequila, and a splash of lemon and lime juice. It’s crazy how much it tastes nearly exactly like a margarita. And being on Keto, it’s very hard to find or make a Margarita that doesn’t have a lot of sugar/corn syrup in it.
So how do you enjoy Fresca? Any other good recipes?
