I drink barley water all the time, trying to lower my cholesterol and hoping to out run the diabetes bug! (it has caught several of my family & friends, but so far I'm doing good). I have tried all 3 recipes for barley water that are listed on "Zaar"...they are all pretty darn good and deserving 5 stars! I use Stevia to sweeten, if I sweeten at all. I have even flavored glasses with the flavored Stevia. I have also used barley water when making my Grand Children their powdered mix drinks (Crystal Light), they doesn't know the difference. -
What a yummy healthy drink! I made as directed and totally enjoyed this drink! Thanks! Made for PAC(Pick a Chef)!
