Finding a healthy cold drink that’s not filled with sugar, additives or colourants, can be quite the challenge. That’s where A1 Sparkling Fruit Water comes in. Whether you’re on a diet or specific eating plan, or just want to cut back on alcohol consumption, A1 is the zero calorie, sugar-free drink you’ll want to try this summer.
Available in three delicious flavours – mandarin, lemon and grapefruit – A1 Fruit Water is made by infusing fresh sparkling water with a splash of real African fruit, and offers a tasty, healthy and refreshing beverage option.
True to its commitment to health and wellness, A1 Fruit Water contains no sugar, calories, sweeteners or preservatives. Simply put, it contains nothing artificial. This sparkling water is a by-product of South African juice production, ensuring a low environmental impact and a supply chain rooted firmly in South Africa. This approach guarantees a fair deal for everyone involved, from farm to can.
Currently, A1 Fruit Water is available in a 300ml slim line can, wrapped in a recyclable sleeve. You can find A1 Fruit Water at selected Pick n Pay, SPAR stores, on Takealot.com, and at various independent retailers.
Our editorial team recently had the opportunity to put this refreshing drink to the test – here’s what our editor thought:
“I drink a lot of water during the day – especially during summer – but sometimes I crave a little bit of flavour. I try to avoid fruit juices and sparkling drinks because of the high sugar content, which means that I’m left with very few options.
I was excited to try A1 Fruit Water because the drinks do not contain sugar or any calories. They’re made from sparkling water (sourced in SA) and have a dash of fruit added to them for flavour. The citrusy flavour selection got me excited too, and I first put them to the test on a warm day when I craved something refreshing.
I really enjoyed all three flavours – they are subtle, yet offer something more than regular sparkling water. I added a few slices of fresh lemon or lime to the drinks for extra health benefits.
These are so tasty and refreshing when cold, and I think they’re the perfect drink to take to the beach or on a picnic during the warmer spring and summer months. They’re also a great non-alcoholic option for anyone who wants a refreshing drink at a function but does not consume alcohol (or those who want to cut back on their alcohol consumption).
I love that they’re locally manufactured and housed in recyclable packaging. South Africans are known for being innovators and our food and beverage industry is one of the best in the world, so it comes as no surprise that such a tasty, innovative drink was crafted locally. I highly recommend giving it a try!” Anien – Editor
