Have you been missing your flavored cappuccinos and lattes because of your low carb diet? With Monin’s new line of syrup, you can have all the flavor you want without worrying about your waistline. Monin O’free is sugar, fat, calorie, and carbohydrate free, making it the perfect choice for diabetic and low carb regimens. These syrups stood up to an in-house blind taste test, proving that they are free of everything but taste! These guilt-free syrups come in 750 ml bottles and are available in Chocolate, Vanilla, Raspberry, Almond, Caramel, Hazelnut, White Chocolate, Irish Cream, and Amaretto.
With the New Year comes new goals and like many, I’m aiming to get fit and drop a few pounds. For me, it‘s all about making exercise a priority and changing my diet to opt for healthier versions of the things I consume on a regular basis. This year, I’ve started off in full force at the gym and in the spirit of healthier alternatives, I’m drinking Skinny Lattes.
A regular 8oz. latte has 150 calories and 70 calories from fat while an 8oz. Skinny Latte has only 90 calories and 0 fat calories. This one small change in my diet is saving me 60 calories per day. That might not seem like much, but it adds up to 21,900 calories per year!
A Skinny Latte is made with espresso and non-fat milk instead of whole or 2% milk. If you want to add some flavoring and keep it skinny, you can add sugar-free syrup in place of regular syrup or flavoring. Monin Sugar-Free Syrups have 0 calories while regular syrups add about an additional 100 calories to your drink.
Check out my video to see how easy a Skinny Latte is to make!

OttoMatic Try adding a teaspoon or so of 2% o whole milk to your nonfat milk. It lets the nonfat milk work more like the real thing, giving it a more creamy texture and allowing it to work better for art. Learned this in a local barista class and it works for me. Give it a try!
In honor of the recently released Pirates of the Caribbean movie, this month's recipe is an island favorite. Gather your friends and enjoy a few Carribean Frappes this summer!

I love the way this makes my coffee taste and absolutely love that it has no sugar or calories. You don't have to sacrifice flavor for calories and it doesn't have the aftertaste I've seen with other syrups. I made a Caramel Macchiato this morning and I think it was better than my neighborhood coffee shop! I am definitely going to try other flavors.

What a great product.......
I bought a bottle of your vanilla and raspberry syrup for my diabetic husband for Christmas....stocking stuffers. He loves flavored coffees, but unfortunately most products found either contain sugar or else the flavoring is off . He loved it and so did I. We use it not only in coffee, but on fruit, in cola drinks, & on ice cream, ect.
Good sugar free products are hard to find; this is quality!
Thanks.....M. Jaquez

Hello
I was wondering about the ingredients in your Monin O'Free flavored syrups. Is there an artificial sweetner, like Splenda, in them?
Thank you for attention to this matter

What type of sugar substitute is used in this product? Sorbital does not agree with me. Thank you for your prompt reply. I am placing an order for other products this morning. Laura Jager

Laura Jager Never heard of Zerose Brand sugar substitute. I guess I won't take a chance. Thanks for the quick reply though.
Can you please give me the ingredient listing for the Monin O'free syrups? Just found your sight off of ebay and am so jazzed at the selection.Thanks!!!
What is the sweetener in your O’free sugar free syrups?
small triangleSplenda ® (sucralose) and Eridex ™ (erythritol, a natural low calorie sweetener that occurs naturally in fruits and vegetables). Using all-natural erythritol in addition to sucralose gives our O’free line clean, true flavor without the aftertaste typical of other sugar free products.
