Hey CG readers! Check me out on Twitter and MySpace and make me feel loved! :P The Facebook page is coming too soon, and I'm still working on updating the Twitter and MySpace
GURU Lite, while not certified organic, is, like the others, 100% natural and made with sparkling water and cane juice. GURU Lite is based off of GURU Original, it’s not a juice or a tea; it’s a low carb, low calorie version of GURU. As such, Lite’s can looks similar to the original’s (as it has the same wavy image on the can) but instead of being red, Lite has a whiter, simpler color scheme to it. The packaging makes this drink appear purer and even kinder; while there are some energy drinks I would dread coming across in a dark alley, I wouldn’t mind seeing this one.
GURU Lite has a very similar aroma to GURU Energy’s. It has an interesting berry smell to it like the original’s, and while it’s good, it smells a little less sweet and you can tell that it’s a light version of the drink. The taste is a little blander than the original flavor, as GURU Lite doesn’t contain the white grape juice that its non-lite counterpart has. Lite, who’s taste is comparable to Sprite’s, has a hint of lemon in it, and possibly some luo han guo. Having it be that I have no idea what luo han guo tastes like, I can’t be sure; all I know is that GURU Lite contains luo han guo juice.
While the taste and packaging of Lite differ from the original, GURU Lite’s energy blend and caffeine content do not. This drink packs the same 145mg of caffeine per 12oz can that its more caloric cousin does. It also contains guarana, Echinacea, panax ginseng, and ginkgo biloba in a 1285mg/serving energy blend. Lite also only contains 10 calories and 2g carbs per serving, making this a very smart choice in beverages. While GURU Lite isn’t as sweet as the rest of the family, the fact that it can come with so few calories and sugars without tasting awful or cutting back on caffeine makes this drink a great choice for anyone looking for a healthier energy drink.
Guru Lite, like all of its counterparts, is available in stores and online. If you shop online, be sure to use coupon code: Caffeine_GURU10% for a hearty 10% off your purchase, in addition to free shipping! Coupon has expired, sorry guys!

I normally dont drink “Lite” or “Diet” drinks and only tried it because I heard Madonna drinks it. Don’t know if it was the taste or it was Madonna’s influence but I find myself drinking about 3 cans a week now.
