JUST Water
JUST Water is a non-carbonated spring water infused with organic fruit essences.
Fruit essences, also called aromas, are one of many natural flavor substances approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). They’re derived by heating fruit, collecting the resulting vapor, and condensing it for use in foods and beverages
Each 16.9-ounce (500-mL) carton is free of calories, added sugars, and artificial sweeteners.
Notably, the carton is made mostly from paper while its cap is made from sugarcane.
Plus, the carton can be refilled, which may make it appealing if you’re looking to avoid single-use plastic water bottles — which aren’t designed to be reused.
Drink Simple sparkling maple water
Drink Simple sparkling waters contain carbonated maple water and juice concentrates.
Maple water is the clear, slightly sweet sap found in maple trees. It’s collected by tapping a spout into a maple tree, which allows the sap to flow out.
Though it can be boiled down into maple syrup, maple water itself isn’t sticky — in fact, it looks and feels just like regular water.
It’s a natural source of antioxidants and essential minerals, such as manganese, which plays a role in digestion, metabolism, and immune response.
Since maple water and juice concentrates contribute some naturally occurring sugars, these flavored waters are not calorie-free. However, they have roughly 70% fewer calories than the same serving of a soft drink.
Each 12-ounce (355-mL) can contains 40 calories, 10 grams of carbs, 40% of the DV for manganese, 4% of the DV for calcium, and 1% of the DV for potassium.
