Bai Flavored Water, Rainforest Variety Pack, Antioxidant Infused Drinks, 18 Fluid Ounce Bottles, 12 Count, 3 Each of Brasilia Blueberry, Costa Rica Clementine, Malawi Mango, Sumatra Dragonfruit

I absolutely adore these drinks. my least favorite is the blueberry - only because it is a very strong deep blueberry flavor that i find a little overpowering - i use that one for cocktails actually and its really great and unique addition to typical mixed drinks. i am on a strict low glycemic index diet and refrain from most artificial sweeteners because they still mess my with insulin levels - these are tremendous! they are great when looking for a bit of sweetness and the caffeine is a nice subtle pick me up. the clementine one is my overall favorite. the price on these is great especially when you take advantage of the coupons and the auto subscribe options - they are so much cheaper than buying them in an grocery store that I've seen. I much prefer them to vitamin water zero - but you do have to be aware that these use some sugar alcohols so depending on your dietary needs the vitamin waters might still be a better option for you. i tell all my friends to try these and i hope that they don't change the recipe any time soon. don't really know what more to say - they are yummy - they always arrive in great condition, not bent or anything. everyone should try them - a great way to transition away from drinking juices and sugary drinks! and even if you dont care at all about your sugar intake - these are just delicious - much yummier than snapple or arizona or other brands. enjoy!

First off, I am not a diet drink fan. I HATE artificial tasting sweetness. I don't drink diet sodas and I don't usually even like stevia. On a whim, I thought I would give Bai5 a shot. I was intrigued by the blend of sweeteners and I wondered if it would make a difference. And it did! Wow, these are sooo good. I could live on the blueberry flavor alone. After I work out, I often get a craving for something sugary and sweet and a bottle of Bai5 keeps me out of trouble. I can easily drink one undiluted as a yummy "sugary" snack fix, though sometimes I will split one between two or three glasses of sparkling water for a lighter tasting beverage. I'm usually the first person to have issues with the "gastric side effects" of artificial sweeteners, but I don't have any problems with Bai5. I only have one or two per day--might be a different story if I drank more. The caffeine doesn't bother me at all, but I'm a big coffee drinker. If you're sensitive, don't drink them too close to bedtime. It's only about 35 mg, but if you avoid caffeine, these might not work well for you. Bai5 is made of coffee berries, after all, so be aware... Now my only issue is the cost! Sheesh, these are so expensive. Had to order another case today when I saw I only had two bottles left. Maybe some day a store near me will carry them and put them on sale now and then!

When I had a gastric sleeve procedure done to help me lose weight, I was told that I shouldn't drink carbonated beverages any longer. At the time, I was consuming at least 3 - 4 Cokes a day, and wondered how I would cope. After trying many different flavored waters, I found BAI and fell in love with it! It is pricey in the grocery stores (especially lately), but it is worth it to me. By purchasing it regularly (every 2 weeks) on Amazon, I generally save on the per bottle cost. BAI is truly the best tasting flavored water out there, and enabled me to give up my soft drink habit.

I've only tried the Clementine flavor so far, but I'm pleasantly surprised. It tastes pretty mellow, smooth and fruity. Very refreshing.. But there's one problem. It's definitely overly sweetened. They use substitutes of sugar, which allows them to say it has barely any sugar in it. Which makes people want to drink it more....It's a shame. This company had a chance to create a phenomenal, healthy, natural and tasty drink... but it's really really sweet, from the different sweeteners like stevia, that they added. That's why I can't stand so many popular American foods and drinks. There is so much unnecessary sugar, salt, seasoning, flavoring, etc. in everything. It's no mystery why we are the most obese and unhealthy country in the world. We place so much emphasis on having a delicious flavor, and less on the healthy aspects that our bodies crave. I know companies need to make money, and also be desirable to different groups of people. But it's a bit like selling out as well. Bai is a really good product, overall. But the fact that the sweetener is stuck in my throat for long after I drink it, is not gaining it any points. Yes, I realize your drink wouldn't be as tasty without anything to sweeten it up. But you went a little overboard. Our country is already totally abusing sweets and salt and desserts and dressings and sauces, and all of that extra junk that compiles into the beginnings of disease. But with Bai, the ingredients are completely special and more natural. And that's what I love... I just want to let it be known, that this drink can still be wonderful, with less sweeteners used. Seriously. I know our country relies too much on heavy and bold flavors. I know that obese people will still like your drink. But for the health-conscious smart ones, looking for actually healthy and decent drinks and food, the options become more limited to us. It's too often, no flavor, or way too much flavor. I wish you guys had chosen more in the middle of that choice. Perhaps your taste testers are from a particular area.... oh my god. This is made right next to me. Like 15-20 minutes away. Aw. Well nevermind. Many people will love, and DO love this tasty drink filled with natural caffeine, tea, and fruit juice concentrate. I'm a brand new fan. For sure. But this drink would be absolutely perfect with a slightly milder flavor. My throat still tastes sweet right now. That just isn't natural. I think as humans, we all have to step back and see what we are truly putting into our bodies. I've gone to restaurants where none of my friends and I could eat our meals. They were intensely over-salted, and it was a complete waste of decent food. It was shocking. Why? Why is that necessary? I just don't get it. People can salt and season food as they like. But once it arrives unpalatable, there isn't much choice. I don't think we need extra encouragement to eat foods that are overly seasoned! It was a big contributing factor to my dad's cancer- steaks and other such meats, and an average addiction to heavily salted and sweetened foods. He was totally healthy 1 year. Then an exact year later, he had Stage 3 colon cancer. How could it get that far so fast? Without any signs?! He had been accompanying a diabetic friend to many restaurants. His friend's health was totally deteriorating, including his eyesight, from the diabetes and the stuff he ate. He was a strange guy, a loner, who spoke little English, without any women or family or friends in his life. Therefore, he would invite my dad out to nice dinners and meals, on his dime, just for the company. ....Who could really say no? My dad and him constantly went out, drank beer and wine, and ate steaks. Especially cooked in a restaurant, that's asking for trouble. It just amazes me that the option of eating big, grand meals equals totally forgetting about your body and health. They were best friends. But of course my dad 's friend died from his sad lifestyle and lack of care in his own health. He was sick and just too unaware or uncaring to try to live a somewhat healthy lifestyle. Then, my dad immediately was found to be very sick, and most of his intestine was removed, on top of chemotherapy. He is also too unaware and uncaring to prevent himself from falling backwards. Even after such a horrific experience. ...I just wanted to explain some of the dangers of carelessly putting junk in our bodies.... There are a couple different tea companies I love. Both offer great teas with no sugar.. (but of course, this is the U.S. so they HAVE to make nasty sugar drinks for people.) One is a famous Japanese company, who makes refreshing, pure, bottled natural teas. They literally use- Pure Green tea, real rose petals, and vitamin C as their only ingredients in ny favorite flavor... That kind of drink makes me really motivated, and it feels good to drink such a delicious and healthy drink without any worries. I don't have to count calories(i never did), or worry about my sugar or STEVIA & ERYTHRITOL intake. I can drink, knowing I'm feeding my body nothing but pure goodness and nutrition. Those drinks cost a bit more, like about $1.20- $1.40 per bottle I think. But they have the large bottles also. I am willing to spend a hit more to live a healthier, cleaner life. I'm already sick with chronic illness. I have no choice but to focus on my health. My throat STILL tastes sweet at this moment... it's been over a half hour since my last sip. SORRY Bai, but your drink is too sweet. You didn't have to go there at all. This natural juice flavor is delicious already. The only thing stopping it from being my favorite new drink is the super sugary taste. Which sucks. But it could be worse. I hope to find more companies like this, but who are even more dedicated to healthy, subtle, naturally balanced drinks, that encourage milder tastes. This is just a little too much cavity to ignore. No matter how natural you may claim it is. It just shouldn't be anywhere near the vicinity of the sweetness of Gatorade. Luckily this flavor is a lot more delicate than that, but still. Regardless, I'm a new fan. I DO really like this drink. It's certainly better than most drinks on the market today. Hopefully in the future, the company can make even less sweetened healthy drinks. Then, I'd be willing to even advertise for you guys. For real. It's all fun and all good until you get sick. No one ever thinks they will. DRINK BAI! IT'S FRIGGIN GOOD!

I've never had any issues with artificial sweeteners of any sort (neither physical reaction, nor aversion to taste). But after tasting the Bai5, I'm a little spoiled. I tried one of my previous favorite drinks recently, and could very much tell that it was artificially sweetened. I came right back here and ordered a couple of cases of the Bai! I've had all the flavors, and they're all really good. I'll probably reserve the coconut for use in my post-workout protein smoothies, though, as I'm not a huge fan of coconut stuff on its own. The lemon tastes like real lemonade should. Some of the flavors come across as sweeter than others, because there isn't as much "tang" to them, like the dragonfruit and the peach. I'm not saying that's bad -- I like "sweet". They're not watery like some "smart water" brands -- these are a full-on, flavorful drink. It's not juice, but it's a great low-calorie, antioxidant- and caffeine- infused alternative.

A lot of the reviews had me worried I would get expired bottles. I checked and all of them expire a bit less than a year from now. I'll definitely have drunk all of them by then so no worries on my end about expiration. They arrived in a single box, so no double box. Mine were intact. Obviously, go to the store and buy one or two before buying 12. They taste a little different but I personally love it. The sweetness comes from Ethyitrol. It's about $1.50 for one at the store but a bit less here. So a little bit of a better deal, but not as much as you'd think for buying them in bulk.

I absolutely love these. The flavors are all great, and the taste is slightly to mildly sweet, not overpowering. I don't drink much sugar and prefer natural subs like honey,stevia, monk fruit, etc. Nothing GMO or altered. This drink provides the best water alternative out there besides sparkling water (p.s. the Bai 5 drinks are smashing too!). Drink in moderation, and feel uplifted! Non GMO, no artificial preservatives, no ridiculous amounts of added sugar (and technically, no added sugar besides naturally occurring ones). I give this drink an A+ and look forward to drinking them in between hot tea and water sessions. My whole family loves them too, no body ever mentioned the weird taste of sweetners like others are focused on, I think that is mostly a mental thing, because I have tried many sugar alternative drinks, and I think this one blends the taste of sugar subs the best!!!

We occasionally purchase the Bai drinks at Costco. It's a different flavor mix but cheaper than most of the packs on Amazon. Then we found this mix, we weren't sure about the Dragonfruit flavor but figured we'd give it a try due to a coupon which actually made it cheaper than Costco. We liked this mix so much we have since purchased two more cases and seem more in the future! The coupon is now gone but we realized even without this mix is about the same price as Costco, but we like ALL the flavors in this mix versus some of the flavors in the Costco mix. As long as the price stays the same this will be our goto mix of Bai drinks!
