What are Water Flavourings and how can I use them?
Whilst on Plan, it’s key to drink plenty. Water can sometimes be boring, so for those that like to mix it up a little, The 1:1 Diet water flavourings range can help keep you hydrated.
There’s a variety of flavours to choose from, so something to suit everyone:
- Lemon and Lime
- Orange
- Pineapple
- Raspberry and Elderflower
- Golden Vegetable – if you want something a little more savoury.
All you do is add a teaspoon of the flavour of your choice to a litre of water and voila – a tasty drink. But that’s not all. We’ve got some great recipe creations, find out how you can take a simple tub of water flavouring (and maybe a scoop of mix-a-mousse or two) and turn it into something fabulous!
Checkout our Lemon & Lime Zinger Mocktail or this Berry Bloomer Mocktail for a refreshing drink, best served over crushed ice.
What can I make with the Mix-a-Mousse?
Pretty much anything! Most of our Product Recipe Hacks use Mix-a-Mousse instant gelatine powder. I highly recommend you always keep a tub on hand when getting creative with the 1:1 Diet meal replacement products (MRP).
Can I add more water to meal/shakes?
Yes, if you find your meal replacement is a little thick you add a little more water until it's the consistency you like.
