Passionista Principle: “If life were predictable it would cease to be life, and be without flavor.” ~Eleanor Roosevelt

Passion up! As you know I love a good party. Whether it’s a Girl’s Night In Movie Night, Speed Dating Event, Kiss & Tell Live, Tapas & Sangria cocktails or Sinner’s Dinner Party I love to throw a soiree.

My good friends at Crystal Light issued a fun beverage challenge. They sent over a couple of boxes of Crystal Light to see whether I would choose Flavor Over Fizz. I decorated my drinks Passionista style and ready to serve.

Now, if I’m not out enjoying wine or cocktails I only drink water and tea. Water all day long while I’m working and green tea for a burst of energy in the morning. I’m not a “fizz” girl anyway but I wanted to see if Crystal Light had anything for me as well as my buddies who love soda. Crystal Light is a powdered drink enhancer that you add to water with only 15 calories per serving.

Here’s what happened!
