Moove over Moolatte – Amy Dungan Reviews Big Train Low-Carb Blended Ice Mocha Mix

I’m a sucker for the combination of coffee and chocolate. My first ever sip of a Diary Queen Moolatte sent my taste buds into orbit. Sadly, it sent my blood sugar soaring as well. Coming back down from that high was not pleasant at all, not to mention it’s counterproductive to weight loss and good health. Many times I have tried to find a substitute for my beloved Moolatte, only to end up with less-than-acceptable copies. Thankfully I came across a product from Big Train that will work in place of this high-sugar favorite.

Big Train Low-Carb Blended Ice Mocha Mix is euphoria with a straw in it. I whipped up a batch for my family and we all gave it a try. After several minutes of slurping sounds from straws and quickly emptied glasses, we declared this product a keeper. It has a nice smooth texture which reminds you of ice cream. The taste is fantastic with just the right combination of coffee and chocolate. It’s pretty much perfect.

This does contain sugar alcohols, but thankfully it’s erythritol and not maltitol. Each 16 ounce serving contains 14 carbs, with 1 gram of fiber and 11 grams of erythritol, which leaves a net carb count of 2 grams. If you prefer to play it safe and count half of the sugar alcohols in your carb allotment, you have a carb count of about 7 grams, which is still considerably less than most full sugar iced coffee blends, which run around 82 carbs per 16 ounce serving. Even if you counted the full 11 grams of erythritol, you are still getting a carb bargain. And since these iced mochas are made with the much less socially offensive erythritol, most people won’t have to deal with the fear of running off all their friends.
