Has anyone tried these new flavors??? What do you think?

They're fine. I'm not thrilled with any of the flavors we have, but the new ones aren't too bad. They are definitely better with the alcohol. Without, the Lemon Drop Martini tastes pretty much like lemonade and the Strawberry Daquiri is too sweet, I think. With alcohol, they are ok, but not super. I think the Daquiri might be better as a frozen drink so I'm going to try that when I serve them at my Spring Products party. The Lemon Drop might be better with Citrus Vodka rather than regular Vodka. I might try that at my party too.I know you didn't ask, but I've also tried all the other ones we have and have thoughts on those. The Margarita without alcohol tastes like a pretty good sour mix. With tequila, it's not a bad Margarita. A little extra lime helps freshen it up. The Cosmo without alcohol is too sweet. But add a little vodka and some fresh lime juice and it's pretty tasty. I'm not a fan of the Mojito. I just don't understand why it has cucumber in it. There are too many flavors to figure out in that one. I thought I would like the Appletini, but it tastes really weird. It smells delicious -- like a sour apple Jolly Rancher. But with or without alcohol, it has an odd taste and I can't find any way to make it better.None of them taste to me like a drink you'd get if you went out for drinks. But as a fun drink for a party, the Lemon Drop, Strawberry Daquiri, Margarita and Cosmo are decent.Shari in TX
