It says to shake. So I shook. And it exploded. 1/5
The flavors were nice and the packaging makes me happy. I’m a sucker for typography and labeling! Unfortunately the product labels say “a little bit sparkly” and all three of the flavors I tried were flat. No carbonation to be had. That said I thought the coconut lime tasted delicious and all of the flavors were slightly elevated versions of your standard canned coconut water. If I saw these on shelves at Whole Foods or Thrive Market or Amazon started carrying them I would definitely buy them but I don’t think I love them enough to go out of my way to order them directly.

Carbonation, carbonation! They could be extremely refreshing if they just had that extra oomph.

Sierra! We're stoked the packaging makes you happy - we think it's pretty special :) It sounds like our "little bit of sparkle" was just a bit too "little" for you, sorry to hear that! We find it really refreshing without overly bubbly (who wants a bubble overload while playing?!). I'm so glad that you find the elevated coconut water rendition to be delicious, and hope to see you snag some cans when we're on one of those mentioned platforms very soon <3
I enjoyed trying Courtside! The flavors were pretty intense and sweet, I was expecting a more mild flavor with the coconut water. I liked the Berry Lemonade flavor the best.

The packaging seems cheap. The label slipped off of the can and the cans arrived dented.

Andrea - You rock for taking the time to shoot us a review! Happy to hear that you liked Berry Lemonade and enjoyed trying all the bevs. We definitely get a unique flavor punch by adding the organic fruit juice to the recipe...you don't see it coming, huh? PS. I'm sorry to hear that the cans arrived dented...that's no way to enjoy our bevs whatsoever, so please never hesitate to email us if something comes damaged (although, we sure hope that wouldn't happen again)! Cheers <3
In the best way possible I have nothing bad to say about these drinks. I don't drink it and get a super intense flavor, but there is flavor. It's much better than a plain seltzer but that would be my closest drink to compare it to. I find it very refreshing and easy to go down. I would buy them for the summer.

I don't have much to complain about. I have it 4 out of 5 only because the flavor isn't super intense, however I'm not sure I would like it as much if the flavor was more intense. I think if you are look for an intense coconut flavor or the flavor of the can this isn't for you. But I don't like coconut water and I like this, it's perfect for me.

Thank you for the kind words, Stephanie! "Very refreshing and easy to go down" is a beautiful description of the drinks - I feel the same way! It all makes for a very chuggable beverage during a day of moving. We're honored that we could find the perfect formula to convert you to a coconut water lover. Cheers!

In their own words
Courtside was born out of kickball scrimmages, pickup basketball, and days at the park. We searched for sports drink options for the recreationalist - those looking for simple, understandable, natural hydration for activity. Without any luck searching the aisles, we developed Courtside to quench our thirst with naturally-occurring electrolytes, easy-to-understand ingredients, and a taste worth enjoying on or off the court. Our community is centered around play - one that cheerleads and moves together, even if it’s off-rhythm. Made with coconut water, real fruit juice, and light effervescent carbonation, it’s simple, no B.S. hydration.
