Healthy Soda Without Stevia: Clean Taste Meets Real Ingredients

Many people looking for a healthier soda end up with drinks that use stevia, erythritol, or other sugar substitutes. While these options reduce calories, they can leave a bitter aftertaste and may not be the best choice for digestive health and lowering risk from diabetes. Crazy D’s takes a different approach by delivering real flavour from real food, without relying on non-nutritive sweeteners.

Why Stevia-Free Matters

Stevia is marketed as a natural alternative to sugar, but it is still processed and can overwhelm the taste profile of a drink. Although Non-Nutritive Sweeteners like Stevia are considered safe and well tolerated, there effects on glucose intolerance, activation of sweet taste receptors (making you want MORE sweets) and alteration of the microbiome are controversial. Crazy D’s skips them entirely, choosing instead to craft flavour with fruit juices and botanicals that taste clean and balanced.

Sweetness From Nature

Every can of Crazy D’s gets its light sweetness from naturally occurring fruit sugars from prebiotic root vegetables (Yacon Root, Chicory Root) and low sugar prebiotic fruit pulps (Baobab Fruit Pulp), never syrups, artificial additives or non-nutritive sweeteners. The natural source of fibre, is also the natural source of sugar - the way nature intended!, delivering 8 grams of fibre and only 5 grams of sugar per serving. The fibre mitigates glycemic spike and this is why we are careful to ensure the fibres outnumber the sugars.

Flavour You Will Actually Crave

Healthy soda should not taste like a compromise. Crazy D’s comes in flavours that spark nostalgia while providing functional benefits:

• Cherry Cola with real cherry, bergamot, orange and nutmeg notes

• Ginga’ Kick imagine a ginger ale with REAL ginger, lemon and lime juices - balanced with nutmeg, cinnamon and turmeric.

• Twisted Citrus with bright lemon-lime organic juices while featuring Baobab and Camu Camu

• Thrilla in Vanilla a premium Vanilla Creme Soda with real vanilla bean and extracts

A Better Choice for Your Gut

By choosing prebiotic fibre instead of non-nutritive sweeteners, Crazy D’s supports the growth of beneficial gut bacteria while avoiding the digestive concerns linked to some sugar substitutes and non-nutritive sweeteners.
