Hint Water

Before the holidays, I was sent a package of Hint Water. David and I absolutely LOVE the water; it has a slightly sweet flavor but has absolutely NO sugar. We love the blackberry, mango grapefruit, and watermelon. In fact, David and I got into an argument at JFK on Christmas Day because he was about to throw away our Hint water so we could get through security! I ended up chugging it before getting on the flight to North Carolina and running to our gate so we wouldn’t miss our flight, but it was worth it because I really could not waste a drop of our blackberry Hint water!

I love drinking Hint water straight, but I also made a smoothie with it and it tasted really great as well.

Blackberry, Mango, and Blueberry Hint Smoothie

1/4 cup mango
1/4 cup blackberry
1/4 cup blueberries
1 bottle blackberry Hint water
1/4 cup unsweetened cranberry juice
Ice (optional)
Vodka or tequila (very optional)

Place everything but the ice into a blender:

If you don’t have a blender, you can use a fork to mash up the ingredients. Blend until smooth and serve over ice.

If you want something a little less frothy and chunky, you can strain the drink before serving. It’s really good when you add a little vodka to it.

Do you like Hint water? What are your favorite flavors?

Full disclosure: Hint water was provided and consumed for this review. It was delicious and I continue to get Hint water even though it’s not free!

As I put down my Mango-Grapefruit, I must say that Hint wanter is the ray of sunshine and happiness in bottle form. My favorite is the Mint one, though it is not often stocked here at work. I dream of rotating Hint waters!

But on a side note, what do you think of the MintWaters? They’re also pretty spiffy, but more expensive. ChocolateMint is not my favorite, but Orangemint is like drinking a Tic-Tac. In a good way!

Cliff, I couldn’t have said it better! Hint water is absolutely fantastic and I’m always a little happier when I have one in my hands. I haven’t tried MintWaters – they sound intriguing and I’m going to look for one today. ChocolateMint sounds a little scary, especially in water form!!!

Yeah, Whole Foods seems to have them. I had a LemonMint myself yesterday whilst selling some tickets. ChocolateMint is a good idea, but probably best served as an ice cube or a mix-in for a cocktail. CherryMint similarly. But the other mints are awesome, and OrangeMint was the first one I ever tasted. Therefore, the best.
