If you saw our post on How to Make Diabetic-Friendly Choices at Taco Bell, you will already know that the Baja Blast is far from diabetic-friendly. As Taco Bell phases out the Baja Blast Zero Sugar, we kick our kitchen into copycat mode. My daughter loves the Taco Bell Baja Blast but not the calories and carbs, so we decided not to miss out on the great flavour, but kick the calories and carbs to the curb. Now that we have a delicious Sugar Free Baja Blast Recipe, she can enjoy her favourite Taco Bell Beverage anytime she wants.

Nutritional Information
How many calories and carbs are in our Sugar Free Baja Blast Recipe? ZERO!
Zero Calories, Zero carbs and the zeros go on and on. Gatorade (G Zero) made by Pepsico, does have electrolyte replacement benefits. The electrolyte replacement benefit with G Zero is the same as the regular Gatorade. So the great thing is that if you’re looking to rehydrate and replenish but don’t need the sugar and guilt, you can enjoy a sugar-free Baja blast.
Pro Tips
Can’t find Crytal Light Lemon Lime Singles?
Crystal Light Lemon Lime singles can be hard to find in the USA. If you can’t find it, you can substitute it with Sunkist Lemon Lime Singles or something similar.
Can I make a big batch?
Yes, you can easily double or triple this recipe. do not add the ice. Only mix the liquid ingredients and pour over ice as you serve. Due to the carbonation of the Sugar-Free Mountain Dew, this does not store well. The Sugar Free Baja Blast loses its carbonation and goes flat if not served right after making.
What do I do with leftover Baja Blast Mix?
Our Sugar Free Baja Blast recipe also makes great popsicles. Pour the leftover mix into popsicle moulds with sticks and freeze. Use it whenever you need to chill out and cool off.
Can I use Powerade instead of Gatorade?
You can use Zero Sugar Powerade Mountain Berry or other blue zero-sugar Powerade. Keep in mind that if you change ingredients, the flavour will also change.
