Great, question. Delicious with no bitter taste. I assumed all sugars were removed from the new batch of RMHB beverages compared to their legacy drinks. However, the ingredients says carbs: 67.11g, per portion, which I assume is sugar. It tastes way to good to have artificial sugar. Has a very light carbonation. It may not be a choice of drink for the adult looking for a healthy non sugar drink option, but the CBD is certainly a great alternative. I recommend buying a RMHB product and specifically ask for a sample CA Lemonade. Truly a remarkable drink. I would be shocked if this drink was not a Mexico favorite!
