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.

  • Spindrift might be the best thing that I've ever consumed. my only gripe is that they don't sell the variety 30-pack anywhere else but costco. They can do no wrong in my eyes. If you haven't tried the spindrift spiked seltzers, you are seriously missing out, the half-and-half spiked seltzer is my favorite alcoholic canned bevs.

    nothing this is a perfect product line

  • Sparkling water with a splash of real fruit juice, what’s better than that? Nothing. Tastes good, natural. A little tart which I like.

    Hard to say it’s worth the money.

  • I drink at least 2 of these a day. They’re so refreshing, low in sugar and taste like fresh fruit. They’re excellent to use as a mixer for cocktails. Tequila and grapefruit spin drift anyone?

  • Delicious! Love the natural taste and is really refreshing. A go to all year round and definitely a hot favorite during gatherings with friends and family.

  • Their flavors are great. I have grown to love sparkling a lot.

    More flavors!

  • The best sparkling water! Favorite flavors are blackberry and grapefruit.

  • As an avid seltzer drinker, I like the stronger fruit flavors in Spindrift thanks to the real fruit used to flavor.

  • Truly can't get enough of it. The best sparking water in my opinion, and not so much juice that I feel stressed about it. Lime is my favorite.

  • The best tasting flavored sparkling water. Since it's real fruit juice it doesn't have the weird fake flavor taste of other brands.

  • Tastes good, more of a fruit flavor/sharpness than other typical flavored seltzers but love that it doesn't have "natural flavor" chemicals.

    More flavors!

  • I know what sets this apart is the fact that it’s flavored with real fruit etc but I just can’t get past the floaters in the drink. I probably would drink it if it was available (maybe) but I wouldn’t buy it again personally.

  • Blood orange tangerine & lime are very tasty. Love that it's not sweet

  • These are my favorite seltzer waters! The flavor is not overpowering, the taste is real and not synthetic and the flavors itself are refreshing and creative.

  • Absolutely love these drinks so refreshing especially in the summertime heat

  • Yummy! Love these - I stock them in my office fridge. They're superior to the sparsely flavored sparkling waters out there. I'm a lemonade enjoyer, and the fruity flavors make me happy. Love seeing them pop up in more local spots, as they're a great casual drink.

  • My sister is obsessed with this, I certainly enjoyed it but l wouldn’t try this again.

  • Love Sprindrift! Grapefruit and Lemon are my favorites, but we often have them in our office, and everyone has different flavors that they love. The can design is fun too!

  • As far as the minimal ingredient, low calorie carbonate beverage offerings go, I think Spindrift is my favorite.

  • I’m a huge spindrift fan and love the simplicity but strong flavors in their products. I loveeee the grapefruit highly recommend
