Reviews mention

  • Natural ingredients transparency
  • Bright citrus-forward flavors
  • Pleasant, refined carbonation
  • Versatile cocktail mixer
  • Inconsistent flavor execution
  • Occasional bitter aftertaste
  • Gentle, subdued carbonation
  • Tart, juice-like profile

Spindrift earns strong reviews for delivering sparkling water that actually tastes like real fruit—thanks to its use of real juice, crisp carbonation, and clean ingredients—making it a standout versus La Croix and other “essenced” seltzers. However, reviews also flag inconsistencies: certain flavors read bitter, tart, or bland (notably lemon, mojito/Nojito, strawberry lemonade), the fizz can feel light for seltzer purists, and some dislike the juice-like profile or lingering aftertaste.

  • One of my favorite sparkling waters to drink. I love that it’s made with natural ingredients and actually tastes good and not metallic.

  • I really love spindrift and that they use real fruit juice!

  • Grapefruit and the half and half lemon tea are my personal favorites! Also lime, with some coconut water and a dash of agave syrup and ice is a delicious way to level it up. (Not that it needs it)

  • favorite all natural sparkling water in the market! they have great flavors made with the best natural ingredients, would reach for spindrift out of any flavored sparkling water out there

  • This is the only sparkling water that tastes *real*. It tastes like actual fruit is inside. I really love it! I love that it Can be found at Costco also. Great to see better brands in big stores.

  • I only have gotten the raspberry lime seltzers to mix with vodka and it’s always been phenomenal. It masks the alcohol flavor and everything super well. Bonus that it’s a healthier alternative to coke or something.

  • My husband and I bought a separate fridge for the amount of spindrift we drink in a week. Spindrift is the absolute best carbonated beverage out there. They have a great variety of delicious flavors and you don’t have to feel bad about drinking them instead of soda.

  • I was on a spindrift kick for a while but I think the sulfites mess with me. Taste ok but not the best product of its kind out there in my opinion. I also don’t like the “natural flavors”

  • Just a tasty lil bev. Their arnold palmer flavor (half tea/half sparkling lemon) is just *chef's kiss*.

  • Delish flavors of sparkling water. The bubble content in these are delightful! My favorite is the pineapple and if you add it to a glass with rum, ice and a little umbrella, you have yourself a lovely day.

  • i am the weird one for not liking this brand i understand. i’ve tried multiple of their flavors and i can’t stand them :( feel like im drinking straight up juice when i want a light, airy, flavored sparkling bev.

  • A step up from every other artificially flavored seltzer. The real juice makes all the difference.

  • Tried it cause I didn’t want something sugary but thought it tasted pretty unnatural. Not into it.

  • I love a good seltzer water, but for some reason I cannot get over the aftertaste of any spindrift flavor. Not my favorite brand compared to what else is on the market.

  • The little bit of juice added gives these a perfect hint of flavor and tartness. So refreshing and thirst-quenching. Makes great additions to cocktails too!

  • i dont love sparkling water but if i have to drink it this is the brand I like. Simple ingredients, not artificial tasting, good flavor variety. Pretty refreshing!

  • Yummy and unique flavors and super cute packaging. I'm a huge fan!!

  • One of the only brands of spanking water that doesn’t have toxic chemicals in the can! Drink up
