I loooove the XXX/Acai, Blueberry, Pomegranate one. I gave up drinking soda, and I drink those instead - but once a week at the most.

I love Vitamin Water, Smart Water, etc. Glaceau has great products.

Yum! Love VitaCoco! BTW - they now have those low-cal Vitamin Waters - with 10 cal's a serving.

Although, if you are in it for electrolytes, try drinking VitaCoco (its what I drink during intense capoeira classes). More electrolytes and less sugar (plus no fake ingredients, just green coconut water!)

I have no issues with VitaminWater or Gatorade...when being used like you are supposed to (strenuous activity, like the poster above). Hate when i see people drinking it like its juice and complain that they just "can't" lose any weight! arg.

I drank a Power-C Dragonfruit Vitamin Water before and after climbing Mt. Tallac in Lake Tahoe last weekend - and my recovery was much better than expected. The strenuous 11.6 round trip could have called for a lot more calories, but I'd eaten a lot of fruit that morning, and didn't want to have a sugar high before starting. The electrolytes definitely helped me hydrate throughout the day, and the extra vitamins/minerals were great for my immune system - which was working extra hard to rebuild after the hike + adapt to the 9, 739 ft. climb.
