TalkingRain Sparkling Essence, Natural, 16.9-Ounce Bottles (Pack of 24)

For a variety of reasons, I wanted to stop consuming sugary beverages such as soda and juice. Many zero calorie beverages have artificial sweeteners, which I feel are generally unhealthy, potentially carcinogenic, and also not very tasty. However, I'm not a big fan of plain water as I just really don't like the taste. Talking rain sparkling water is a fabulous alternative. It's extremely tasty, contains no sugar, has no unpronounceable ingredients, and is very affordable. Basically, the lemon-lime flavor is subtle, and combined with the fizzy-ness, results in a very pleasant beverage. The price for these bottles is, per unit volume, comparable to what 2L bottles are sold at in my local grocery store.The only drawback is that all these small bottles are not a very environmentally friendly option. Hopefully Amazon will start selling the 2L bottles in bulk at some point.

I maintain an open-house philosophy so people are welcome virtually at any time. Four years ago I bought one case of this item. During that time I have offered to my guests and have yet to see anyone finish one bottle. To say that is bad-tasting is akin to calling a mastiff Tiny. It is repugnant but I keep the remaining bottles here to continue confirming my conclusion this is the worst tasting drink ever made and sold on a commercial basis.

This water has a very strong taste for me, but my sister really likes it. If you freeze it, make sure to drink a least a 1/4 of it or you will get a science experimental explosion in your freezer. Make sure, you check on it and release the top to let the gas out of the bottle. Being frozen, it is like a slushy. Now, the price is really*really reasonable. Make sure you click on the standard shipping (I think it says 5 to 8 days) takes longer, but free shipping. Saves the consumer lots of shipping cost!!! With that saving on shipping, the consumer can spend more on the products.

This is a wonderful little mixer. It comes in a case of 24 and the bottles are easily stowed in the fridge ready to be mixed into your favorite drinks!The fizz lasts for a long time if you close it correctly and it has a wonderful taste even on its own.I do not come across waters that are much worth a review but this water definitely speaks for its selfI seriously hope Amazon gets this back on stock!

I subscribe 'n save for this item because it's tasty, and it ships it to me at work (beats lugging a case of water to and fro). That said, be aware that these are only 16.9 fl. oz. (500ml) bottles. You can get a nearly-identical product at Trader Joe's for $12.00/case (this was $18 at the time of writing), and Trader Joe's bottles are 18 fl. oz.Just be aware that purchasing this item locally is probably a better deal until the price gets closer to $12/case.

This is delicious lemon lime sparkling water. I had never heard of this brand before and decided to give it a try - glad I did. Once I received it I immediately put one in the refrigerator. Later when it was cold I tried it and it was very refreshing. Just the right amount of bubbles and lemon lime flavor. This is a healthy alternative to soda. I look forward to trying TalkingRain's other flavors of sparkling water.

Do not settle for the cans - phenomenal freshness is in the bottle! And what's more, if you're looking to break your soda habit this could be your healthier, fresh first step toward weaning off! All the talking rain bottled products are tasty, loaded with fizz, and the perfect thirst quenched. This is a staple in our home.

I have been ordering this for over a year now and I am very satisfied with it. I had it on the "subscribe and save" program, but recently it was dropped from that program. This won't stop me from ordering it as a regular order.The taste is mild, not like some sparkling waters that are overly mineral tasting.
