Anyone tried it? I love adding flavor to my water (I tend to drink A LOT more) but want to do so without many calories, or chemicals - I'm not sure of the contents of these, just keep seeing them advertised. If they are all natural, and tasty, I'm in!

i haven't tried it yet, but they are expensive for the size of the bottle..yikes..good luck0

They are awesome, no calories, no sugar. Its a liquid, not a mix. So as soon as it hits the water in your glass it instantly mixes, they are pretty cool and not too expensive.0

i haven't tried it bc i ... being unbelievably dumb and nondirectional lol ... can't seem to find it in the store. i am fairly sure i've walked passed it a bunch of times .. how much do they normally cost?:frown:0
-
they looked pretty expensive. I'll stick with flavored teas.0

Strawberry-watermelon! Yum! No Calories- no weird chemicals. Kind of pricey, but I don't put as much in my water as the serving size indicates, so it will last quite a while for me.0

I tried one and got hooked. Bought them at target, 3.50$ is expensive but withva 1$ Target coupon & a 1$ regular coupon makes them 1.50$ which isn't bad :-)0
-
they are about $4 for a small bottle..may be healthy and good..not worth it for me0

I just looked at the ingredients list, #3 is propylene glycol otherwise known as ANTIFREEZE!0

Considering how many drinks you get out of one bottle, I think 4 bucks is pretty cheap. The first one I tried is peach tea and it's super delicious0

not to mention SUCRALOSE

But let's get real: The ingredient list is full of artificial colors, sweeteners and preservatives. What's so wrong about having clean, unflavored water? Or --gasp-- maybe adding real pomegranate juice if you want a taste of pomegranate?0 -
I did buy a bottle at Wal-mart, think it was a little over $3. But like somebody else said, I don't put the whole amount in, just enough to get some taste, so it will last a long time. As for having artificial colors and flavors, what doesn't unless you planting and growing your own foods? I just wish they had a cherry flavor, the strawberry-watermelon is pretty good though. Don't know if I like it better than the great value mixes though? Good luck!0

SERIOUSLY?? there are HUNDREDS if not THOUSANDS of products & foods that can be store-brought that do not have artificial colors, flavors and/or sweeteners...0 -
I have the fruit punch one and I like it. I usually just drink plain water but when I want something different (especially with my dinner), I put some in my water and drink up.0

Love It!!!!
I have tried the fruit punch and the berry pomegranate, which has become my favorite go
to no calorie drink. I used to drink diet coke all of the time but since they have come out with this stuff I no longer drink soda everyday, I even bring this stuff to resturants and ask for water .
I dont think that its expensive, cause I have been on the same bottle for a week now and have at least 2 glasses a day and it
helps me with increasing my water intake.
I highly recommend this stuff!!!!!0 -
Thanks all - might have to take a peek @ the ingredients and, if I approve, give it a try! Appreciate the feedback!0

Not familiar with any chemicals in them, but they are calorie free and very good. The sweet tea one is my favorite and tastes pretty close to the real thing, but without all the sugar.0
