The drinks consisted of water, juices, and a variety of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hansens.com\" title=\"Hansen's Natural Soda\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Hansen&#8217;s Natural Soda<\/a>. This was a great mix for everyone to find something they liked and were all-natural.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-21421\" title=\"hansens_picnic01\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cookiesandclogs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/hansens_picnic01.jpg\" alt=\"Hansens Natural Cane Soda Picnic\" width=\"370\" height=\"245\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-21422\" title=\"hansens_picnic02\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cookiesandclogs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/hansens_picnic02.jpg\" alt=\"Hansens Natural Cane Soda Picnic\" width=\"370\" height=\"245\" \/><\/p>\n<p>We had six varieties on hand (but the sixth one didn&#8217;t fit in my soda pyramid above). The flavors were Creamy Root Beer, Kiwi Strawberry, Pomegranate, Mandarin Lim, Raspberry, and Original Cola. I felt a bit like a commercial as I was sharing all the fun facts I had learned about Hansen&#8217;s. My friends didn&#8217;t mind as they ooh-ed and aah-ed at all the natural goodness the sodas contained.<\/p>\n<p>One of the girls decided to be the first to try the Hansen&#8217;s Natural Soda. She took just a drop and assessed it. It wasn&#8217;t enough so another small taste was needed. Next she started drinking it full-on. She loved it! Her mother loved it even more. She said you could definitely tell the difference and that it tasted much &#8216;cleaner&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>Another friend mentioned that, while growing up, Hansen&#8217;s was the only soda was they were allowed to have in her house. Now, as \u00a0a mother herself, she was glad to rediscover the high-fructose, artificial color, caffeine, and sodium-free beverage.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-21423\" title=\"hansens_picnic03\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cookiesandclogs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/hansens_picnic03.jpg\" alt=\"Hansens Natural Cane Soda Picnic\" width=\"370\" height=\"245\" \/>\u00a0<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-21424\" title=\"hansens_picnic04\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cookiesandclogs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/hansens_picnic04.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"370\" height=\"245\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The verdict? The Hansen&#8217;s Natural Soda was a hit.
