You are what you drink?

On the heels of the Diet Coke Plus release, which touts its sugar-free, nutrient-filled beverage as the first “healthy” soda, comes a new wave of “good-for-you” sodas.
Airforce’s Nutrisodas carbonated, nutrient-enhanced sodas with zero sugar, caffeine, sodium or aspartame “targets on-the-go, nutritionally-aware people who also enjoy new experiences and discovering new products,” says a company press release.
The bevy of flavors offered seem more like aromatherapy than soda, with flavors claiming such powers to boost Immune, Energize, Flex, Focus, Calm, Radiant, Slender and Renew. With zero to few calories in each drink, the designer line drinks promise to appeal to fashion and health-conscious consumers.
Nutrisodas might very well be among the healthiest drinks out there, but at around $21 bucks a 12-pack case, I’ll stick with fruit juice and water.
