Disclaimer: I am not a regular flavoured water drinker, and prefer the taste of water to nearly all other forms of drink (including alcohol). So this post may be unusually relevant, OR irrelevant to you.


TASTE
Quite strong. Other than the lemonade flavour the drinks tasted fairly natural and almost tasted like watered down juice. That said, due to the strong flavour of the water, I found that when I drank this rather than regular water, I consumed substantially less, which is odd since the intent with these is to get more of your daily intake of water.

FUNCTION
I tried taking one of these to the gym with me and found that it did not give me the same energy as water. Furthermore, I spoke with my instructor (a big fan of flavoured vitamin enhanced water), who actually recommended Vitamin Water instead, since it also has a bit a caffeine in it for extra kick. So if you're looking for a sports drink of sorts, that brand may be a better choice.

OVERALL
The favour is ok, the value is average for the type of product it is, but really, it didn't even go near to converting this aquaphile to the flavoured/bottled stuff.

I had a chance to try 3 different flavours:
In order of most favourite to least favourite:
* Fuji Apple Pear - this was my favourite! It would have been better if it wasn't so sweet, but I still enjoyed this drink and I would probably choose this over the other flavours.
* Black & Blue Berry - It was delicious.
* Strawberry Lemonade - really enjoyed the taste, and the fact that it was sweet and sour at the same time.

Overall, I think if these drinks weren't as sweet and only had a hint of the flavours, it would have been much better. I would still buy this instead of pop, iced tea, etc. Thank you for introducing me to this product!

I am so glad to have been given the chance to try the new Aquafina Vitamins 10 Cal. Enhanced water.
I have been waiting for a company to release a stevia sweetened flavoured beverage that is low cal and tastes good.Aquafina is sweetened with a stevia extract all-natural sweetener, called PureVia.This does not cause cavities! Yay! Also great for diabetics or those counting their calories.

So I was excited to see that there were 6 full size bottles waiting for me in a box at my door.
I received 2 of each of these 3 flavours:
Fuji Apple Pear, Strawberry Lemonade and Black & Blue Berry

My fav was the Fuji Apple. It had a strong scent but tasted refreshing and just the right sweetness.
The other 2 flavours were a bit to sweet for my liking.

I gave some to my hubby to try. He loves his Coke and other sugary drinks but said it was pretty good and satisfied his sweet tooth.Now if only I could convert him!

Aquafina Plus Vitamins 10 Cal is really tasty. The best thing about this almost zero calorie drink, is that it is sweetened with Stevia extract, instead of artificial sweeteners! The flavours were nice, I thought they were strong enough to taste, but not overpowering. I thought the Fuji Apple Pear tasted just like pears (and a hint of apples). The Strawberry Lemonade was not sour, but had a nice subtle flavour. The Black and Blue Berry was really tasty, a nice berry flavour. These drinks were very refreshing, and I have been buying them all week, because they taste so good. I don't know about the benefits of the vitamins in the water, but it can't hurt to have extra vitamins in your diet. The only thing I don't like about it is the other added ingredients. For example the Black & Blue Berry contains red colour, xanthan gum, modified corn starch, silicon dioxide, erythritol, and some stuff I couldn't spell if I tried, though these ingredients are probably better than some other sugary drinks. I would definitely recommend Aquafina Plus Vitamins 10 Cal, especially if you are looking for a flavoured drink without the added sugar and calories! It is a nice alternative to juice and pop, and compared to some other flavoured waters, doesn't taste artificial, or have a bad aftertaste.

I really enjoyed drinking this product. The flavors of this drink were pretty good, so overall I enjoyed it a lot. The bottle design was also pretty cool. the drink is somewhat expensive, but if you really like it it would be worth it to buy.

Overall, I was impressed that (when chilled) the drinks don't have the chemical smell and taste that I usually associate with Aquafina water. I would not buy this product or recommend it to a friend but if you are looking for a low calorie, vitamin rich drink, give it a try.. you might like it. I prefer other flavoured water such as crystal light. I'll take my multi-vitamin and drink something else!

Fuji Apple Pear
This drink really smells like pear! I found the smell too strong. It was very flavourful but I did not enjoy
the taste.

Strawberry Lemonade
The smell of this drink was more mild than the Fuji Apple Pear. This drink does not taste like lemonade at all. It tastes like a watered down red juice.

Black and Blue Berry
I did not enjoy this taste either.

I was sent an extra bottle of each flavour, which I gave to my sister to try. She loved all of the flavours and will buy them in the store. (I did not include her opinion in my ratings.)

I really liked this drink. As soon as I opened the bottle the smell of what was inside was fantastic and the taste was even better. My husband, who is usually very picky about what he drinks, loved it as well. I loved all three flavours that I got to sample and would definetly buy it again. It quenched my thirst and was a taste sensation.

Hm. Well, in the beginning I was completely "under-wowed" by this! The natural sweetener had a bit of an odd aftertaste [similar ot artificial sweeteners- one reason why I avoid them] that took some getting used to...
After about the third bottle [which was refridgerated this time- a key thing to do for better flavour!] they were growing on me, and by the end of my 6th bottle, I was hoping I'd find another in my fridge ;) They were a great low calorie way of starving that sweet tooth without increasing my calorie intake by much.. and also increasing my water intake to help balance my exercise output!

All in all: a bit pricey, and not great when warm or just slightly cool... but I'd buy them again on sale and enjoy them!

I find that as I have gotten older, I find most flavored drinks too sweet for my tastes, so I was a bit skeptical with regards to trying this product out. I have to say that I am very impressed by the flavors that were sent to me. My favorite is the Fuji Apple Pear. I like that each bottle only has 10 calories and the flavors are not cloyingly sweet. Also important for me is that there is no strong artificial aftertaste as common in some drinks which have been artificially flavored. As for the stated vitamin benefits, I doubt that the amount there would make a significant contribution from one bottle. For a drink like this, the primary usage would be for hydration anyways. Even the guys in my household, who are avid Gatorade drinkers, enjoy this product and found it refreshing. I have found the bottles on sale for as low as 99 cents at Walmart and Shoppers Drug Mart, so it is definitely an affordable fitem. I would not hesitate to recommend this as an alternative to other flavored drinks that are in the market today.

I received this product from the review club and I was pleasantly surprised! First that they were generous enough to send us 6 bottles, and then at the taste. I have tried vitamin drinks in the past (usually when sick or hungover), but have been turned off by the sacchrine taste. Aquafina doesn't have that. I found I liked the blueberry flavour best as the other two were a little overpowering, though enjoyable (I drink unflavoured water all the time, so this was a jolt of flavour). I also like the fact that it was only 10 calories, I enjoy having the flavour and none of the guilt :)

I think the price point is good considering the size of the bottle as some smaller drinks are just as much. I will definitely look for the Aquafina the next time I need a vitamin packed drink.
