Product Review and Giveaway: Baja Bob’s Margarita Mixes

Date November 16, 2009

Roni drinking Baja Bob's Margarita Mixes

A few weeks ago you may have noticed that picture on twitter. I had the unfortunate job of taste testing a couple of margaritas for a review on the site. I know. I know. It totally sucked. I mean who wants to spend a night in with their husband sipping margaritas and watching netflix movies.

Ahhhh Who am I kidding. I had blast!

Here’s the deal… Baja Bob shipped me Lime Margarita Mix and Mango Margarita Mix, both were a box of 10 pack singles. I made one of each. Ok, ok, maybe 2 of each. ;~)

Both flavors were good. My only complaint would be the mild sugar free after taste but that’s to be expected… the mixes ARE sugar free. To me it’s a small price to pay for 0 calorie margarita mix. That’s right you heard me.. ZERO CALORIE.

Your average restaurant margarita is at least 300 calories. They are normally gigantic and full of sugar. Using a sugar free mix the only calories in this margarita will come from the tequila, which I believe is about 70 calories an ounce.

Not too Shabby for a cocktail!

Now… due to a mix-up in shipping I received extra boxes of each flavor. I’d love to give them away. Just shoot me a comment below if you are interested and I’ll pick a random winner this Sunday. It’s coming from me so I’ll ship anywhere.

two boxes of Baja Bob's Margarita Mixes to giveaway

Oh! if you are interested in the ingredients click here for original and here for the mango.

I’m off to bed… getting up early and going for a run tomorrow before work!

  1. I love maragarittas but always tend to not drink them due to how many calories and sugar are in just one. I would love to give a sugar free version a try. Either flavor!

  2. Hey Roni.. I would love to try the mango margarita mix…or what the heck I’ll try the original..

  3. If you’re willing to ship them to New Zealand, I’d love some! I love me some cocktails but once I discovered how calorie-heavy they were, I sadly avoided them. I would love to try either flavour of these ones :)

  4. I have heard of these on other sites as well. I would love to try either of them.

  5. Twist my arm! :-) I would love to share the original flavor with my gal pals! :-)

  6. Yum!!! I would love to try either!

  7. I would love either and I love margaritas!

  8. Love margaritas!

    I received the Dr. McDougall’s soups today! Along with a fancy soup bowl, pretty placemat, napkin and napkin ring from Crate and Barrel! I was so surprised at the extras! I’m going to try one tomorrow…I’ll let you know what I think!

  9. I would love either, I love mango, and I love margaritas!

  13. Yum!! I’ve been wanting to try these mixes!

  14. Sounds like you had fun taste testing these. I would love to try them to. Zero calories, that’s just my number.

  17. I’d give them a try … though I must admit to not being a big fan of the Baja Bob’s low-carb pina colada mix. (Bought some back when I was doing Atkins.)

  18. Oh I would love to try these. I have seen an ad about baja bob on dwlz for different mixes by him.

  19. I love margarita’s. Please enter me in the drawing. You’re right, 70 calories for a Margarita is excellent.

  20. Oh man! I can’t remember when I’ve had a Margarita last! Sugar Free! Cool beans! I’d be delighted win this giveaway. Thanks for the opp. Roni.

  21. Sign me up! I have heard of these mixes but have not tried them yet…would love to! I used to love a good margarita…but have not had one in years! That is too many calories to use on a drink…no matter how good it is! :) good luck to me! :) Thanks, Roni!

  22. I would love to win some! My BFF loves her some margaritas, and I’d love to bring this to her the next time we are able to get together! (we now live 800 miles apart, so I only get to see her every few months).

    Love the blog. Long time lurker, first time commenter.

  23. Hiya Roni, I’d LOVE to try these!! You including the tequilla too??! LoL!! Just kidding!! Hope you don’t mind shipping them to Ireland though. Thanks!

  25. Margaritas are my FAVORITE! I’d love to try them!!

  26. I’ve seen these somewhere before and wondered if they were any good. I’m not sure about the Mango flavor, but would love to try the original…

  27. I would love to win this! Margaritas are a major downfall for me on my weight loss journey! And if I don’t win, any suggestions on where to buy them?

  28. Please enter me in the drawing. Love, love margaritas – but don’t love the empty, crazy amount of calories. Thanks, Roni!

  29. Love, Love Love margaritas!

  30. I would love to try these, since I have had Gastric Bypass i can not tolerate sugar. I have been wanting to try these!

  31. Pick me, Pick me! I love margaritas but the calories are outrageous. I would love to give them a try. Thanks for all you do Roni! You are awesome!

  32. I have ordered their mudslide mix and would love to try this one too!

  33. I would love to try these! Love margaritas, but won’t indulge due to all the calories. This would be awesome!

  34. I’d love to try these!

  35. i would love to try a sugar free margarita for free :)

  36. A sugar free margarita? No way! Please put me in for the drawing! :)

  37. I’d like to enter! Thanks :)

  38. YUM! I love margaritas! At every get-together/celebration/funeral (Greek) my friends and family seem to drink margaritas. I had them at my graduation, grandfather’s funeral, bachelorette party, out with friends, etc. But since I started back on ww (love that baby weight) I’ve had to stay away =( I would love to give either flavor of Bob’s a try.

  39. Yummy! I’d love to try them!

  40. YUM count me in – PLEASE – I could use them during my netflix nights with the hubby LOL

    Danielle

  41. Yay margaritas!!!! Love me a mango margarita!

  42. pick me…(please)…………………………..just what i need to unwind on a friday night…………………….

  43. Zero calories! I’m in….

  44. Hi Roni, I would love to try these. Thanks! Kris

  45. Pick me! Pick me! ;)

    Thanks for having another give away Roni!

  46. I would love to try them.. thanks for sharing with someone :)

  47. Not to sound whiny but I could REALLY use some margaritas… full time teacher, part time coach (which is really a full time job in and of itself), full time grad student, mom, wife, and that’s only a portion of my week…. There isn’t enough space to delineate all that I have going on right now with work and school and parenting and wifing! PLEASE???? I could drink a margarita while I am in my PJ’s sometime in the future!!!!! :)

  48. I’ve actually been really interested in trying these but as far as I know, they don’t carry them in any stores around here. Did you know they also have a mudslide mix? Yum! Anyway, I would love to try them – thanks for the giveaway!

  49. I love margarita’s. It would be great to find a lower calorie option!

  50. Nothing says holidays like Margaritas! ;-)

  51. Sign me up!

  52. Love, love, love margarita’s – low cal ones would be awsome for the odd indulgence!

  53. Me Me ME! I love Margaritas!! :)

  54. Sounds delicious!

  55. Pick Me!!!!

  56. I would like to add that I have tried every flavor of Bob’s that I could find. I found a Mai Thai and a Strawberry margarita mix as well as what Roni has above. I havent tried the powdered ones, only the bottled. I have to tell everyone that these are AWESOME! I dont think I can do a mixed drink the regular way anymore knowing that Bobs has no calories. Bob’s isn’t available in every state, so if you have seen them snatch them up!

  57. I avoid fake sugar things most of the time, but cocktails are an exception! A 70(ish) calorie margarita? WOW! I’d try it!

  58. Yes, Yes – please let me try – I love these drinks, but have stayed away due to the calories and sugar. I’m thrilled there is an alternative :-)

  59. Oh, wow. This is like an answer to my (very selfish, very pointed) prayers! Thanks for the opportunity!

  159. I would love to try this! I have 8 marg glasses that I’ve never used!

  160. Me! Me! Me! My husband always by the tub of Margarita mix and I never join in – those calories just aren’t worth it to me. I’d love to try the Baja Mix.
