Vitamin water flavors come in all shapes and sizes, but there are some that reign supreme above the rest. There are a lot of factors to consider when choosing which flavor will best meet your needs, including flavor, size, and price, to name just a few. This buying guide will help you select the perfect bottle to suit your individual needs. The next time you’re shopping at your local convenience store or grocery store, you can be sure you’ll end up with the perfect vitamin water flavor!
Zero Calorie
It’s no secret that sugar is part of what makes soda so addicting, but that doesn’t mean you have to choose between getting your daily fix of caffeine or your daily dose of sweetness. Zero-calorie sodas make it possible for you to satisfy both at once, which is why they are often a healthy way to enjoy a cold drink without any guilt attached. Of course, keep in mind that all zero-calorie sodas aren’t actually calorie-free; some still contain small amounts of carbohydrates—an effect caused by food products producing gas as they’re digested. For anyone following a ketogenic diet, try sticking with no-calorie sweeteners like monk fruit extract or stevia instead of sugars like dextrose or sucrose.
Feeling Good Feels Good
Feeling good isn’t just about what you’re eating (or drinking, in this case). So feeling better can be as simple as putting on some music that makes you want to get up and dance around your living room. It can also mean laughing with friends or spending time outside in your favorite spot. So remember: If you’re not feeling great, don’t forget to take care of yourself – both mentally and physically. As Dr. Oz might say, You gotta love yourself first!
For When You Feel Sick
Feeling ill isn’t fun, but if you can’t get enough liquids down your throat, try flavored vitamin water. With these drink mixes, you can quench your thirst with a few sips of delicious liquid. Not only does it help you keep down important fluids when you are sick, but many varieties have extra nutrients that will help boost your immune system and ease side effects from colds or flu. Try these flavors from BOSS Professional Series: Orange Mango Tangerine tastes like one of those sweet drinks from an ice cream truck (without all of the calories), while Citrus Grape has just as much pucker power as grapefruit juice without being quite so sour.
Energy Boosters
As we get older, it’s harder for our bodies to absorb nutrients, making it important for us to take in nutrients through vitamin supplements. If you’re looking for a way to supplement your diet with healthy vitamins that help restore youthfulness while keeping you energized throughout your day, Energy Boosters are an excellent choice. There are many different flavors of Energy Boosters available, so which ones do you choose? In order of popularity, here is a list of some of my favorites: Melon Splash was one of my first favorite flavors because it tasted just like watermelon Jolly Rancher candy! Very fresh tasting.
Specialty Flavors
Sometimes you might want more than just a plain flavor in your bottle of vitamin water. After all, variety is important when it comes to eating right. Whether you’re looking for something fruity or just trying something new, we’ve compiled a list of specialty flavors that are worth adding to your rotation. Keep reading for information on what they taste like and how they can make your life healthier. Make sure to pick up one of these fruit-flavored bottles of vitamin water next time you shop!
Add in a Fruit Flavor
Boost your water intake by adding fruit flavors like lime, raspberry, orange or lemon. Not only do they taste great, but their natural sugar (fructose) will satisfy your sweet tooth and fill you up. Plus, they’re much lower in calories than other options like syrups or honey. Try mixing in some mint for an extra cooling sensation.
Soothe Yourself with Tea
Tea is a great pick-me-up when you’re feeling tired, stressed, or under the weather. Most of us associate tea with its health benefits, but some teas also contain caffeine that can energize your day. If you’re prone to anxiety, you might want to stay away from caffeinated teas, especially if you have trouble sleeping or have high blood pressure. The combination of caffeine and stress hormones in your body might just contribute to an increase in your blood pressure levels, rather than a release of them.
Keep it Simple with Classic
For most people, classics can be trusted. It’s easy to make, easy to drink, and comes in a reasonable size. If you prefer carbonated water without any artificial sweeteners or additives, stick with classic as your go-to choice when drinking vitamin water. To make sure you’re getting what you need from your drink of choice, check out our guide below for picking which flavor will be best for you.
