I like Vitamin Water, and I drink it all the time during my workouts. However, if you watch your local markets, you can get much better deals. I've seen it as low as $0.88 per bottle on sale. DO NOT pay these insane prices!

While, I'm not sure I really buy into the whole vitamin water thing, I will say that this flavor is actually pretty tasty. This is not to be confused with the 10 calorie version of this bottle. Oh yes! For the diet conscious, you can save 40 of the 50 calories that comes in this bottle. The 10 calorie version also only has 3g of sugar vs. 13 in the non-diet XXX. That said, I need those 10g of sugar and 40 calories to feel happy about the taste. The 10 calorie one is really so-so, relative to this one which is the perfect not to sweet, slightly fruity flavor. Hence, if you can get past the additional calories and sugar, this acai-blueberry-pomegranate blend of anti-oxidants, which make up the flavor's name of "XXX" is a thumbs up.

I find this drink refreshingly delicious after chilling. However, the ridiculously expensive shipping charge inconveniently makes ordering it online a non-option; I can purchase it for $1.00 (+ 8.25% tax) from Walmart. I live out in the country and will now have to delay this treat until after my next shopping trek into a city, which is what makes it inconvenient.

I love this because this tastes like one of my favorite childhood beverages; black cherry Kool Aid with VERY LITTLE sugar. As for as does it do anything for me? It certainly helps hydrate me. However, I think that adds more pep in my step than any of the ingredients. But it is nice to know I'm getting a dose of vitamin C and antioxidents.

You may want to try and purchase this in a store instead of ordering it on-line as the shipping charge is outrageous. Target usually has this for a very reasonable price.

I really think this water is aweful. I'd rate it just about mineral water I had in Russia. GROSS!! Propel is much, much better!!!

Basically, this is uncarbonated Coke. Below is part of the Judge's summary:

By including the suggestion that the product will "keep you healthy" or "help bring about a healthy state of physical and mental being" alongside such statements, the quoted language implies that the nutrient content of vitaminwater may help consumers maintain healthy dietary practices. I conclude, therefore, in light of the language and context in which they are used, that the statements on the "defense" and "B- Relaxed" labels constitute implied nutrient content claims which use the word "healthy." Such claims are in violation of violation of FDA regulations because . . . vitaminwater achieves its nutritional content solely through fortification that violates FDA policy.

tastes awful
only about 10% of some of the major vitamins
