TalkingRain Sparkling Essence, Tangerine, 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.

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 my least favourite sparkling water. Very flat and funny after taste. I would not order this item again.

Although the Tangerine flavor of the TalkinRain Sparkling Essence water was not my favorite, the TalkingRain Peach Necatarine flavor is divine. It is so wonderful to finally find a flavored water that has NO sugar, NO fake sugar,no sodium, etc., etc., etc., but yet is so delicious and refreshing.

I really love this water. I am a PRIME member and see so much value in being a member. When you find something you are going to order often - like this water - it's perfect! This is not too bubbly that you are belching throughout the day and the flavor does not overwhelm you. It is the perfect combination. I believe to be a good deal too at 75 cents per bottle. I would highly recommend this product. And I will be buying it as a staple. Wonderful alternative to regular water.

The people who make this have no taste buds. This does not taste like berry flavored anything. Nor any actual berries I have ever eaten. It tastes horrible. I have had some other flavors and they are fine. But this one is pretty bad. No one I have give none too (likes the taste of it either.

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.
