BevNET Review

Great start. Lousy finish. This halfhearted effort gave us an instant when we thought Frostie had cracked the diet drink code, as we were awash in notes of creamy, root-y flavor that really reminded us of the real stuff – and then it fell apart into a thin stream of watery splenda so chemically sweet that it actually drowned out the next several sips of the stuff. As for the package, the bottle is a classic squat twist-off with the iconic Frostie guy, and a comparatively large “Splenda” logo stamped prominently onto it. As if you couldn’t tell.
