Sobe Lifewater Black and Blueberry
By: | Jun 13, 2009
Sobe Lifewater was reviewed as Diet Trash because of the unexpected 50 calories per 8 ounce serving. But that was before they came up with their new 0 calorie formulation sweetened with the "natural" sweeteners, Stevia and erythritol. Given my affinity for said 0 calorie beverages, I was eager to try it. It didn't hurt that the bottles were on sale at 10 for $10! I snapped up a bottle of the Sobe Lifewater Black and Blueberry flavor and wondered what my "forti-fight" drink would taste like.
The taste was just okay; it certainly tastes way more like blueberry than any other drink I've had that's purported to taste like the wonder fruit. It wasn't my absolute favorite - the taste was somewhat overpowering for me, and I prefer citrusy beverages. However, it was refreshing. There are no 'off' flavors that some of the other 0-calorie flavored waters have.
Along with providing no calories, Sobe Lifewater Black and Blueberry is also fortified with the following RDA values for one 8-ounce serving (2.5 servings per bottle): 100% for vitamin C, 20% for vitamin E, and 10% for each niacin, vitamin B6, vitamin B12, and pantothenic acid.
While I liked this ... okay, I can't say that this is the best flavored water that I have had. There are other 0 claorie Sobe Lifewater flavors like Fuji Apple and Yumberry, which I look forward to trying.

I tried to citrusy zero-cal one and it wasn't bad. I got about four of them for free, but I don't think I'd buy them at their regular price.
That's the only flavor that I haven't tried yet... I really like the other two though!
The yumberry pomegranate is delicious its my favorite by far.
