Hint Water

I started Keto several times with my fiancé...always ending in failure.

Several months back I was in a bad place with my body image. I’m 55 and most of my life had been in excellent physical condition. Two surgeries, a bad break up, and several unhealthy pounds later...I knew I was going to do something. I wasn't going to diet, I was going to change my eating habits and start a healthy lifestyle. Either that or throw ALL of my clothes out the window. I started an interval fast 16/8 along with a strict no-carb, no-sugar (poison) regiment. I was strong, dedicated and determined. 10 weeks in, I was struggling with drink choices. My morning started with hot tea/no sugar and a couple of bottles of water until 12-2 o’clock (my fast). I felt my drink choices where so limiting. My idea of a cheat was unsweetened iced tea with lemons...lol.

One day my fiancé comes home with a case of Hint Water, asking me if I wanted to try it. I was very skeptical...most flavored waters had sweeteners, artificial or otherwise. I’m not a watermelon guy but was shocked at how sweet the product seemed. Pouring over the label and internet looking for the secret to this witchcraft, lol. I was shocked at how refreshing a drink with no sugar could be.

Fast forward 5 successful months of a healthier lifestyle. I still drink my tea, my waters, but Hint is a staple that keeps a "sweet" treat in my diet that helps me stay "on the wagon." I favor the Crisp Apple and the Pineapple. BlackBerry isn’t bad...drinking it currently. Need to try the Peach as I’m on a Ginger Peach tea kick. The flavors are subtle, but not for a drink that has no sugars/carbs. I highly recommend Hint Water. I feel as though it was a building block in that helped me attain my goal of a sugar-free happy/healthy lifestyle.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I have tried so many different popular brands of flavored water and they are all disgusting to me. I ended up giving them away to people who LIKE to drink hairspray. I love Hint because it is NOT carbonated and there is just enough flavor to make it drinkable (unlike plain water, gross!). Cherry is my choice, I’ve tried the apple but don’t like as much as the cherry. The only thing I don’t like about this water is the price, which is why I have had the chance to sample the other flavors...just can’t afford to pay that much for one bottle of water! (Target retail is $1.69 per bottle.) I would be willing to pay no more than $1.00 per bottle but you have to buy in bulk to get that rate.

I was looking for something to maybe kick my soda habit so I purchased three twelve-packs, 1 Cherry, 1 Apple, and 1 Blackberry. I tried 1 of the cherry and it was awful, it had a chemical taste (don't know what chemical) so I shook it up and made no difference. I decided that I would not try any of the other flavors. I decided that I would request a refund of my $36.00 but I was told by Ashley that since what I purchased was consumable that they could not accept returns and my purchase was not refundable.

So I am out of luck.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Ordered 3 cases of flavored water, then tried the "sparkling" version. Even after letting them sit for days before opening they EXPLODED and had no flavor. When I tried to contact Hint, they said no refunds, so I am stuck with 36 bottles of explosives. They offered a $10 credit but said it couldn't be used on sale items or subscriptions. They sent an email saying 1 day only to order and when I tried no link came up. They have multiple agents that type responses and one agent wrote that my $10 coupon code had been used last month. I had to explain I just received it 2 days ago and it was issued for a problem, not a discount I had used previously. She apologized for her mistake and then I was told to use it at check out. This process has been confusing and irritating. NOT WORTH THE TROUBLE.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I ordered, 7 days later no shipping. Order today, ship tomorrow should be the standard.

Seven-day shipping time is just plain stupid business. Plenty to pick from in the store.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I tried Hint because I thought it would give me an incentive to drink more water. Was I wrong! The taste is so artificial. It tastes like the water had been in a plastic bottle left in the sun for days. My sister said it tasted like perfume. I am so glad I bought only two bottles. Save your money and drink water from the tap - it cannot be worse than Hint.

Length of Use: Less than 3 months

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

My favorites are the watermelon strawberry kiwi, the raspberry, and the pineapple. I find them very refreshing. The taste is pleasant. I don't drink carbonation anymore so this is perfect for me.

Length of Use: Less than 3 months

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I guess for the price, I was expecting more from Hint Water. For me, it was less than a hint of flavor; it was practically nothing. I was very disappointed.

That said, the packaging is attractive and the bottle is easy to open. Also, I appreciate the company’s effort to create a healthy drink.

Bottom line: lower the price or find a way to pack more flavor into Hint Water.

Length of Use: Less than 3 months

...something about the lid not wanting to go back on, ever, after opening it for a quick quench bothers me. Maybe a lid that doesn't come off, like a sports-type lid that's re-closeable quickly.

Feels like I'm stripping the threads of the bottle with the twist cap.

Other than that, this water hits the spot every time. Not a "hint" flavor I wouldn't drink. Here's to ya!

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I wanted to eliminate sodas and such. I don't like plain water and I detest sweetener aftertaste. This is completely refreshing and tasty. I cannot get enough. All the local stores can't keep it on the shelves so I order it directly from the company so I can get my fix.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I read many five-star reviews of this product, but those reviewers might be employees of this product. After watching the commercial with the fake firefighters, I purchased three flavors from Target to learn that there is no distinction in taste, among the three. They all have the similar taste of cold-medicine and should not be listed as a refreshing drink. Since I have them, I will finish the lot, but will never purchase any of it again. I gave it two stars as a benefit of the doubt, meaning, it is water.

Length of Use: Less than 3 months
