Didn't like it and neither did my family or co-workers

By Frances T., California, Verified Reviewer

I saw it advertised on TV but I didn't want to get 36 bottles. While we were at Target they had a 12-pack for $10 and I thought that this was a great deal until me and my granddaughter tasted it. It was really nasty and a waste of money.

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

Freshness at its best!

By Kelly Moberly, Sioux Falls, SD, Verified Reviewer

Hint Water is the best fruit infused water I have ever tasted; I've tasted most of them. There is no horrid aftertaste, and it is not sickeningly sweet; most waters cannot claim to be all that. Pineapple is my favorite so far. I love Hint water!

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

I love it!

By Jamie Poland, Marion, SC, Verified Reviewer

I saw this little jewel on a shelf in Bi-Lo grocery store as I was looking for something other than plain water. I have completely forgone soda, juice and artificially sweetened drinks and flavorings.

Hint is exactly what the name suggests; there is a hint of flavor that tickles your taste buds without the use of sugar or sugar substitute. I have not had any of the negative experiences that I have read about in this review, but, I do know that everyone's taste buds are different and that also varies by age so that would explain a few of the comments that suggest they taste no flavor at all. I love the variety of flavors and will continue to buy it.

Thanks Hint for making something different and accomplishing the zero sweetener flavoring!

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

Very refreshing

By Mary Ann Armitage, San Diego, CA, Verified Reviewer

Absolutely a great alternative to sugar drinks. It is not in all stores or easy to find. Also, it is way OVERPRICED for water! Tea in a bottle costs less than this. I would like to buy it, but not for $1.50 - $2.00 a bottle.

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

I love Hint!

By Veronica A, New York, Verified Reviewer

I don't know what some people are talking about! I love Hint! My fav is watermelon, and I have 4 cases of it in my house right now. I also like the pineapple and cherry, but besides watermelon, I don't drink the rest. But it doesn't leave any bad aftertaste, and I don't know what else to say, I simply love it.

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

Hint of watermelon

By Tyler James Fey, Ashburn, VA, Verified Reviewer

My office decided to get these from Amazon as an alternative to the Monster Energy drinks they provide. I ended up trying one today because it was the only thing that fit my diet. Boy was I impressed. I didn't even realize the name was "hint." I was telling my co-worker how it didn't have full-on flavor, just a hint of watermelon on the aftertaste. She laughed at me and pointed at the name "hint." Needless to say, this is now a regular drink at the office.

I would recommend this to anyone who is going the healthy route but wants just a little flavor to your water.

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

Delicious! But not for everyone, and that’s ok.

By Beth S., Verified Reviewer

I found a bottle of Hint Kick Black Raspberry at a store that sells grocery items which they buy from stores that go out of business. I first tried the black raspberry because it was the “kick” and I loved the idea that it was water but yet my beloved caffeine, lol. Also, it was very cheap, something like $0.60 or less.

I instantly fell in love with it and wanted to buy more. I found the Hint website and started purchasing by the case, getting 3+ on subscription, to get it cheaper and no shipping cost. However, the taste isn’t for everyone. I had my 17-year-old daughter try it and she didn’t care for it, but she usually doesn’t like a lot of the drinks I buy, and that’s ok, you can’t please everyone.

I will continue to buy Hint Kick as long as I can afford to do so; I love this water and fully support the company. These reviews about the taste are ridiculous and sound like someone has it out for the company or are teenagers that haven't learned that you aren't going to like everything you eat and drink.

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

Bad tasting water

By Martha D., Virginia, Verified Reviewer

I only bought one bottle of this water and I didn't like the taste so I just dumped it out and I will never buy anymore. It has no flavor, why put a picture on a bottle of water if the flavor is not in the water when you drink it? It's the most nasty tasting water I ever had.

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

Taste is gross

By Lisa C., Massachusetts, Verified Reviewer

My stomach hurt after only a free sips! Nasty taste and waste of money! Save your cash! Buy carbonated water and put actual fruit not fruit oils hint uses! Do not buy! Owner Kara seems to think we believe her nonstop commercial with her fake friends enjoying this garbage! We are smarter than you think! Stop putting cash in her lying pockets.

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

Taste like tap water

By George S., Schertz, TX, Verified Reviewer

I ordered the Hint Water variety pack for $47.97. I opened TWO bottles after chilling them from the first pack Tasted like TAP WATER, so I proceeded to chill two bottles out of the other two 12 packs thinking maybe two bad bottles made it through the process, but to my dismay, they were all the same TAP WATER. Since I opened six bottles, I felt I could not return them to Walmart, as stated, down the drain it went, not knowing what was actually was in these bottles. VERY DISAPPOINTED as I had purchased the product at Walmart to try and it was good at that time which led to my purchase online.

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

Finally a fruit-enhanced water

By Eileen Dunne, Edison, NJ, Verified Reviewer

Years ago I tried a water similar to Hint called LeNatures. The company went out of business, and I have been searching for a similar product. I did not want a sweetened/artificially sweetened water. I wanted just what LeNatures was, a fruit-enhanced water without carbonation. I found it on Peapod, tried it and now order it directly from the company. For me, it is well worth the money. My favorite is the raspberry enhanced variety.

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