BublySparkling Water, 8 Flavor Variety Pack, 12 fl oz. cans, (18 Pack)

Okay, just going to say this first. I hate sparkling water because it tastes like alka seltzer. However, with that said, I am trying my best to change my eating habits, including drinking more water. I wanted to try these because I was told they aren't strong with the alka seltzer taste and are way better than other brands of sparkling water. So, I gave the variety pack a try to see which, if any, I liked.I am so glad I got the variety pack because I ended up loving two of the flavors and honestly didn't hate the other ones. The Mango flavor is by far the best flavor, it is hands down full of mango flavor and totally cancels out any seltzer flavor. I honestly love it and have bought just Mango flavor since buying this pack. The strawberry is my second favorite. It does have the seltzer flavor but it's not strong and actually goes nicely with the strawberry. As I said before, I don't hate the other flavors but I won't be getting them. They do have a strong seltzer flavor but nothing compared to Perrie, which I hate with a passion.Bubly has made me love their water and the flavors are amazing. Trust me, if you love seltzer water then you will love this and even if you hate it, you won't hate this one. I am a believer. Great variety and pretty great flavors.

I'm neither a sparkling water nor soda regular drinker, but I like to have some flavored drink options around the house. The bubly sparkling water is a nice tasting sparkling water and I love the ability to order an variety pack. Bubly sparkling waters make great refreshing drinks if chilled and great mixers for other non-alcoholic or alcoholic drinks/cocktails.Since I'm not an avid sparkling water drinker, I really like that the bubly water is not too fizzy and it doesn't have the `bitterness` of strongly carbonated water. The fizz is mild enough I don't need to let the drink sit before enjoying it.The flavors are surprisingly nice, quite realistic, with no aftertaste. And I love that once I open the can I can also smell the flavor, which makes the experience more enjoyable. It's unsweetened sparkling water, just don't expect it to taste like sweetened soda.All fruit varieties (mango, strawberry, cherry, apple) are true to taste and make great refreshing drinks. Mango has the best taste, having a very natural flavor. The strawberry, cherry and apple (green apple) have a hint of something artificial, but they still taste great and remind of the actual fruit.The citrus flavor (grapefruit, orange, lemon, lime) are also true to flavor, but they might be a hit or a miss. The grapefruit is the most true to flavor (I love grapefruit in it's natural state as well) and I enjoyed it a lot; I'm very happy to have found a great tasting grapefruit flavored drink. The orange and lime are OK, they taste nice; but the orange flavor leans more towards `orange soda` than `orange juice`. I didn't enjoy the lime flavor too much, but I'm not a lime fan in general; still, this is a classic seltzer flavor, makes a great mixer for drinks and cocktails.It doesn't matter that much to me, but the can taps and bottles have `cute` short messages (greetings), which might be fun for some (maybe children more).The variety pack arrived in good conditions (no dents or other damages to the cans). The cardboard `tray` wrapped in a thick plastic (see picture) was delivered in a bigger Amazon box. The pack contained all items in the description (3 lime, 3 grapefruit, 2 mango, 2 cherry, 2 strawberry, 2 orange, 2 lemon, 2 apple).

Edit about Flavor -Almost with all sparkling water, I have to have a few sips to cleanse my pallet of all the strong flavors in every day life. The more sugar or sweet drinks you normally consume, the weirder this will taste. When I first started on sparkling water I hated it, pushed through the first can (of another brand) and then it got easier. The more you drink and more often the better sparkling water starts to taste and the more sickly sweet regular soda tastes. In my experience as well as anyone who has done a sugar cleanse will tell you!I have really enjoyed Bubly. I have been trying to cut out soda for the obvious terrible implications from it and sampling the market for different zero sugar/sweetener and calorie drinks. I tried a certain home soda creator thats popular, but never got a great taste.This sampler gives me the ability to try all 8 flavors without having to purchase 8ct packs of all the flavors. Plus, these waters being so new, my local store has had limited flavors and inventory. This comes with 2 cans of every flavor (3 of lime and grapefruit).The flavor on these is great. I think they have a good smell, which makes your senses feel like you aren't just drinking a lightly flavored sparkling water. The flavor isn't very strong or overwhelming. The apple smells like a freshly cut juicy green apple!All the pop tops of the cans have a little greeting and there is a pun saying in a circle on the side of each can which makes me smile. (Know any nice cubes?)The box is came in was adorable and all the cans were safe and undented.Can't wait to pick my faves!
