Title	Description	Image
Nexba Apple Cider Vinegar Soda	ACV has been a health and wellness MVP for a while now, thanks to its incredible gut health credentials. It's been known to boost metabolism and aid digestion, help balance blood sugar and regulate blood pressure. The only thing is, it doesn't always taste great on its own. That's why we paired it up with our Natural Sweetener Blend, natural vanilla and raspberry flavours and our smart and robust probiotics to create a drink that tastes so good you won't believe it's healthy!
Erythritol	Weird name, epic natural sweetener! Erythritol is made from the sweet, natural starches in fruits like pears and melons. It's a little less sweet than normal sugar, but it has a similar taste and texture. So it feels like sugar in your mouth and has no bitter aftertaste. How good! You can pick some up from Coles or Woolworths.
Tahini	Made from ground sesame seeds, Tahini is a great savoury alternative to peanut butter. Tahini is fairly low in calories but high in fiber, protein, and several important vitamins and minerals.
