About them: True Lemon exists because David Schleider had a eureka moment while eating lunch with his father. In June 2003, David launched Grand Brands (now True Citrus Co.) with its first product, True Lemon. Unique to the market, each convenient sachet provided fresh-squeezed taste, made with only simple and clean ingredients. Today, our True Citrus family of products has grown to 4 delicious, core citrus flavors available in a variety of formats, naturally sweetened, low calorie lemonades and limeades, flavorful citrus spice blends and over 60 retail and food service products.
I had the pleasure of receiving several products from True Citrus Co. for review and could not be happier with them! There are four different core citrus flavors that include True Grapefruit, True Orange, True Lemon and True Lime and I had the opportunity to try all of them! I received four 32 count boxes which included Crystallized Grapefruit, Crystallized Orange, Crystallized Lemon and Crystallized Lime. I also received nine 10 count boxes that included Raspberry Lemonade, Strawberry Lemonade, Peach Lemonade, Wildberry Lemonade, Original Lemonade, Limeade, Black Cherry Limeade, Mango Orange, and Watermelon. These are so incredibly delicious that I can not get over it! All the Crystallized drink mixes are 0 calories and completely unsweetened. The other flavors are all only 10 calories per pack and sweetened with stevia. They have no artificial sweeteners and no preservatives which I love. There are also several different ways to enjoy it aside from drinking it listed below.
- *Add natural radiance and soften your skin by mixing True Lemon with cold water and apply it to your face.

- *Sprinkle your counters and such with True Lemon and scrub with a sponge to clean and neutralize odors
- *Drink and enjoy!
My kids and I really have enjoyed these drink mixes immensely. I love how a drink mix can have so many other uses! Along with the drink mixes, we were able to try out several of the True Lemon and True Lime Cooking, Baking and Seasonings. The True Lemon Lemon Pepper and the True Lime Lime, Garlic and Cilantro are my favorite out of the bunch. They are salt free and great for cooking and seasoning. My kids love when I bake chicken with these seasonings on it. They make everything so flavorful and absolutely delicious. The Crystallized Lime, Lemon and Orange Gingers are great for cooking and seasoning but also great for baking! They all have zero calories and zero sugars and make anything you put on it rich in flavor. I love using the Lemon one when making homemade lemon cookies. They are perfect and my kids go nuts for them! The True Citrus Co. has so many great products and we just love them all. These are a perfect addition to any home and I highly recommend them!
Disclosure: I received these products for free, in exchange for my honest review, which may differ from yours. Regardless, I only recommend products and services I used personally, and believe will be a good fit for consumers.
