Mio Liquid Water Enhancer (Sweet Tea)

Product Information

Buoy uses completely clean ingredients and the bottles are made up of 100% post-consumer recycled materials! Buoy water enhancement drops are designed to increase your fluid absorption due to their formula with electrolytes, which enhances hydration. In this way, Buoy energy water enhancement drops give you the energy boost without the jittery feeling from downing a cup of coffee.

Another common ingredient you usually see in water enhancers is propylene glycol. Propylene glycol is akin to an antifreeze agent, which means that it is a flavoring mechanism and aids in diffusing food coloring. There is also L-Theanine to enhance focus, boost mood, and cause a more gradual and sustained rise in caffeine concentration.

Hint is simply purified water with added natural flavors. It relies on those natural flavors for taste and does not add any sugar or preservatives. It is naturally kosher, vegan, and gluten-free. Similar to flavored seltzer water, it isn't sweetened at all, which you may or may not prefer.

Your recommended content

The carbohydrate content is very low, which may be preferable for some, but athletes exercising at higher intensities, for longer durations, or in hot conditions may need more sugar to adequately rehydrate and refuel. Stevia is a common sugar substitute you’ll often see, which offers 200 times more sweetness than traditional sugar but at a zero caloric intake. A less natural option that some water enhancers incorporate is sucralose, a common artificial sweetener.

February 2014 saw a further widening of the flavour enhancer concept with the debut of Coca-Cola Minute Maid Drops, tapping into the ‘natural’ trend. Positioned as the first liquid water enhancer to contain real fruit juice, it remains to be seen whether the launch will spur other major juice brands, such as Tropicana, to join the category. Also, Buoy donates a bottle for every bottle sold to a verified nonprofit charity supporting people diagnosed with chronic illnesses that can benefit from clean hydration.

The initial choice of the US for liquid water enhancers is understandable. The country has one of the largest squash / syrup markets in the world but it still only ranks in seventh place internationally according to Canadean. Consumption in the UK is much higher and reaching maturity, but few companies have so far recognised the opportunities for water enhancers here. Clear Theory Water Flavoring Drops are exactly what they sound like—clear, delicious, healthy water flavor drops. Water enhancers are flavoring agents, designed to help you stay hydrated and drink more water by spicing things up with your favorite flavor. All you have to do is incorporate a few drops of the water enhancer into your bottle of water while out on the trail, and you’ll have a tasty drink to keep you fueled and energized. Water enhancers come in a wide range of flavors, including everything from blueberry and raspberry to green tea and coconut. Okay, so admittedly the Buoy Immunity Electrolyte Drops aren’t water flavor drops because they are unflavored, but we thought they deserved a spot on this list of best water drops because they are the cleanest label and healthiest water-electrolyte drops.
