Rating * * * * (4 stars)

Starbucks just dropped a brand-new canned energy drink for the summer, and it’s giving tropical vibes! It’s called Starbucks Tropical Peach Iced Energy—and the moment I cracked it open, I was hit with the sweet, sunny smell of fresh peaches. Total summer-in-a-can moment!

The drink is lightly fizzy and super refreshing. The peach flavor is soft and subtle. Honestly, I kinda wish it packed a bit more peachy punch, but it’s still a cool, crisp pick-me-up for those hot summer days!

Rating * * * (3 stars)

The kids and I had a serious chocolate craving—so off to Walmart we went! We grabbed a box of Pillsbury Zero Sugar Brownie Mix, and to really take things up a notch, we tossed in some Lily’s Dark Chocolate Baking Chips.

As the brownies baked, the kitchen started to smell amazing. After an eager 20-minute wait out came warm, chewy brownies.

Once they cooled we took our first bite. The flavor? Rich and chocolate-packed! A little protein bar favor. The texture? Definitely on the very chewy side—but still delicious.

Review of Hershey’s Sugar-Free Caramel Chocolate

When I was a kid, one of my favorite parts of Halloween was going trick-or-treating and nothing beat finding those little Hershey’s Miniatures in my bag. Honestly, I always thought they tasted better than the full-sized bars!

So imagine my surprise when I recently discovered sugar-free candy bars that look just like those Hershey Miniatures from my childhood. I found them during a trip to CVS. They only had the Hershey’s Zero Sugar Caramel-Filled Bars in stock. There are a few other flavors too, but unfortunately, CVS was out of stock on those.

Of course, I had to grab a bag to try them out. The moment I got home, I tore it open like an excited kid on Halloween night. The bars looked just like I remembered—tiny, cute, and even stamped with the classic “Hershey” logo.

Now, here’s the best part: I took a bite and... wow. No weird fake chocolate flavor here! It actually tasted like real chocolate. And since it was caramel-filled, I was expecting maybe just a caramel flavor, but nope—it had actual soft, gooey caramel inside. It was seriously good.

I’ll definitely be back to review the other flavors!
