Crystal Light is the name of a sugar-free beverage (initially sold as a water soluble beverage powder). It comes in many different flavors, and is made by Kraft Foods.
Originally marketed in 1982 with Linda Evans as its spokesperson, the company later had stars Raquel Welch and Priscilla Presley as spokeswomen. The catch phrase for each of the ads was, "I believe in Crystal Light, because I believe in me!"
It has 5 calories per serving, and a serving is 8 fluid ounces. Most of the drinks also have no carbohydrates.
Crystal Light is usually sweetened with aspartame, but the newer prepared beverages are now sweetened with sucralose.
Crystal Light has recently begun producing Crystal Light Energy, which contains 60 mg of caffeine per serving, or 120 mg caffeine per packet.
