5.0 out of 5 stars This is the PERFECT "flavoured seltzer"

(function() { P.when('cr-A', 'ready').execute(function(A) { if(typeof A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel === 'function') { A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel('review_text_read_more', 'Read more of this review', 'Read less of this review'); } }); })(); .review-text-read-more-expander:focus-visible { outline: 2px solid #2162a1; outline-offset: 2px; border-radius: 5px; } I was searching for months for a "flavoured seltzer" which could compare favourably to the omnipresent products which are in all American supermarkets, where you can buy competing brands and many many flavours, all stacked high and much in demand in the USA. The essence of the product is that it has no sugar, and - vitally - no sweeteners or anything else artificial, and no calories. And yes, of COURSE the flavour itself is very mild - with virtually nothing in it how could it be anything else? - but but a cold tin straight out of the fridge? Wow!! SO refreshing, and subtly delicious. A bit like plain soda water but with something about it which makes it special, with a hint of flavour without being overwhelming.Trying to wean myself off Diet Coke (which I continue to love, except for its plentiful artificial ingredients) I have found all three flavours of this Aqua Libra to be my saviour. But don't expect strong flavour - subtlety is the order of the day.It needn't be only for a hot summer's day, by the way. It tastes good at any time at all. I've tried nearly all the brands available on Bolo (these "favoured seltzers" are all-but-impossible to find in ANY supermarkets, and I know because I've looked and have even spoken to the various supermarkets about stocking them, but to no avail). Aqua Libra is my personal favourite (and the tin itself has a very pleasing design) but most of the other brands are perfectly passable - I've consumed a vast number of tins over the past year in order to come to this conclusion!My sole criticism is that - unlike the similar products in the USA - the price per tin is quite high for ALL the brands (and some are even higher than the Aqua Libra price); I'm assuming that if and when the general public find that this product is as wonderful as the American general public have already found, the prices might come down with due competition, but in the meantime I do find the price a trifle steep.In terms of pleasurable drinking, though, I think this product is wonderful. I buy it whenever it's back in stock; the fact that it's out of stock so frequently on Bolo surely tells you how popular this particular product is. Which reminds me - it's suddenly back in stock after another week of absence, so I will put in an order right now.Go for it!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Cucumber and mint

Light. Refreshing and very tasty with no nasty ingredients or chemicals just pure enjoyment especially when served ice cold. Makes a great alternative to mixer drinks or just plain and simple on it's own. Definitely a winner!

5.0 out of 5 stars The best fizzy flavoured water

Love these. Drink them daily! No sugar or sweetener. Just slightly flavoured sparkling water. Great on their own or as a mixer for a savoury gin etc The other flavours are nice too.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great drink, crazy price.

I love this drink! It's so tasty, free of artificials and suspicious sweeteners. You'd think that would make it a very cheap drink to make! But it's doubled in price since I last bought it <:-O Poor move.

5.0 out of 5 stars Chilled Bliss

S.J. · 20 April 2025

My children believe I've developed some peculiar acquired taste and are utterly baffled by my monthly subscription to this product. But once properly chilled, a single sip transports me straight to vacation mode with its refreshingly palate-cleansing flavor. I've ventured into other varieties and I find myself irresistibly drawn back to this one every time!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars The best flavoured fizzy water outside of the USA

A.R. · 27 December 2024

I'm a Brit but lived in northern Nevada for 6.5 years until summer 2022. While I was over there, I became somewhat addicted to canned flavoured fizzy water or "seltzer" as they call it there. There are so many brands available of all conceivable flavours and price points from super cheap to "artisan". When I returned to the UK I suddenly realised there's a gaping hole in the market and the only fizzy water available is nasty artificially flavoured stuff in plastic bottles which I try not to buy. I discovered this being sold per can in a café at my city's main university and my prayers were answered! The cucumber mint and lime is by far my most favourite flavoured fizzy water; even more than any I liked in the USA. It's so refreshing, very thirst quenching and tastes like an unsweetened virgin mojito. It's really nice with apple juice too. Highly recommend!

5.0 out of 5 stars Refreshing

Mostly tastes of cucumber with just a hint of lime. It is a flavoured water but is not sweet. It is an unusual flavour but once you get used to it it is very pleasant and refreshing

1.0 out of 5 stars Bitter and unpleasant

M.Y. · 14 June 2025

The bitter after taste is horrid. I really wanted to love this. I have 24 cans so to make it more palatable I’m adding a lot of lime juice to it. Occasionally I’m putting a sweetener as well which defeats the object. I tried this instead of dash due to price but I’ll go back to Dash.
