    Have never tried it, but the Xylitol scares me. I've made a conscious effort to stay away from any of the alcohol sugars (anything ending with a "tol") because they tend to give me GI distress. I had to give up chewing gum because I haven't been able to find any sugarless gums made without 'em. But the caffeine boost would certainly interest me.

    ETA: Ohhh...I take it back..I HAVE tried ZipFizz before!!! As soon as I clicked on the link and saw the picture...it immediately came back to me. I tried the Pink Lemonade flavor. Bought a tube of it at my local REI, cuz I thought it looked interesting. Didn't realize it had Xylitol in it until after I made the purchase - should have read the label FIRST! If I recall correctly, I thought it tasted pretty good, although I diluted it a bit more than what the instructions stated. But obviously, I had a problem with it because I never bought it again...so it must have given me stomach cramps (which would be my standard reaction to Xylitol or other alcohol sugars).
