What buyers say about Pitcher Packs
5 out of 5
I like being able to control the sweetness
I have enjoyed this drink mix. I have been using 5 teaspoons sugar for 2 quarts. Thats suits my pallet, its not as sweet as artificial sweetener.
5 out of 5
Great taste and price.
Great price and individual packets. I like it unsweetened because then I can make I add the amount of sweetener that I like. Great grape taste too.

Less in the pack!
For some reason these packs seem to have less in them because they taste nothing like the store bought version. Very bland and watery tasting..Waist of money
Type against type
Pitcher Packs against a can of fruit punch
The same 8 fl oz glass, three ways. Sugar and calories for the pitcher come from the carton's own range. The canned drink is the USDA record for fruit punch.
| Flavor Aid Pitcher Packs with sugar | Flavor Aid Pitcher Packs with a no-calorie sweetener | Canned fruit punch, ready to drink | |
|---|---|---|---|
| What you add | 2 quarts of water and 3/4 to 1 cup of sugar | 2 quarts of water and your sweetener | Nothing |
| Sugar in an 8 fl oz glass | 19 to 25 g | 0 g | 28 g |
| Calories in an 8 fl oz glass | 73 to 97 | 0 from the mix | 119 |
| Where the sweetness comes from | Sugar you measure | A sweetener you choose | Sugars already in the can |
| Figures from | Carton directions and the USDA record for granulated sugar | Carton nutrition panel | USDA FoodData Central, record 171914 |
| Better choice when | You want real sugar and the say over how much of it goes in. | You want the pitcher without the sugar and already keep a sweetener you like. | Nobody wants to mix anything: you open the can and pour. |
