If you’ve ever found plain water a bit... uninspiring, you’re not alone. That’s where water drops come in. These clever little flavour boosters turn your regular glass of water into something way more exciting – without loading it up with sugar or artificial stuff. But not all water drops are created equal.
At Six Barrel Soda, we make our own version called Seltz Drops – our sugar-free, naturally-flavoured take on the water drop trend. Let’s take a closer look at what water drops are, why they’re having a moment, and what makes Seltz Drops different.
What Are Water Drops?
Water drops are small, concentrated flavour enhancers designed to be added to sparkling or still water. Usually sold in compact bottles, they’re a convenient way to elevate your hydration – just squeeze a few drops into your glass or bottle, and you’re good to go.
Most water drops are:
- Sugar-free
- Available in a variety of fruit or botanical flavours
-
Designed to help people drink more water (without the boring)
Why Are Water Drops So Popular?
In recent years, more people have been ditching sugary soft drinks in favour of healthier choices. Water drops are part of that shift—giving people a way to enjoy flavour without the sugar crash.
They’re also:
- Portable and easy to use on the go
- Perfect for customising your drink to your taste
- A sustainable option (no cans or bottles to throw away)
