Food Grade Scent Water Flavor Pods and Bottles: Sipperment
I Tried Alix Earle's Favorite Water Bottle, and I Get the Hype
My introduction to the Air Up water bottle followed a familiar script in the digital age – TikTok. What began as a single video on my "For You Page" (FYP) rapidly snowballed into a captivating trend. Even the famed Alix Earle jumped on the bandwagon, sharing in a sponsored TikTok that the Air Up bottle miraculously transformed her from "the worst at drinking water" to "Miss Hydration." Remarkably, she's not alone in her excitement; even Kim Kardashian herself was seen with an Air Up water bottle during a jog on a Peloton Tread, alongside Ashton Kutcher and instructor Robin Arzón.What makes this bottle so intriguing? It reimagines the way we infuse water with flavor. Instead of directly adding a flavor booster to the water, the Air Up introduces "flavor pods" that elegantly slip over the mouthpiece. As you take a sip, your senses are greeted with subtle aromatic cues – a clever illusion that convinces you that you're savoring flavored water.
As someone who still enjoys her La Croix, occasionally downing a six-pack in a day, I've had moments of reflection about the elusive "natural flavorings" concealed in certain canned seltzers. Air Up appeared almost too good to be true. So when the brand extended an invitation to experience their bottle, I eagerly seized the opportunity to embark on this "sniff 'n' sip" adventure.
What I Like About the Air Up Water Bottle
Let's start with the basics – the bottle itself. I opted for a stylish pink hue (the same as Alix Earle's). Crafted from durable frosted plastic (the Air Up website proudly labels it as BPA-free Tritan), it sports a rubber mouthpiece that connects to the straw and a handy cap for on-the-go sipping. The straw offers robust suction, ensuring you can savor every last drop, while the wide mouth simplifies cleaning.But, of course, the standout feature is the scent. Can it genuinely elevate your water-drinking experience?
What's Worth Noting About the Air Up Water Bottle
It did take me a little while to grasp the ins and outs of using the flavor pods and to get used to the air bubbles they create when activated. While the bubbles are intended to be part of the experience, they might initially make it feel like the water flow is stuttering, especially when sipping on seltzer. However, within a day or so, I stopped noticing it so much and was able to just enjoy my "flavored" water. Some flavors stood out more than others (lemon was a hit; basil was almost overpowering), but every pod delivered a robust taste.It's also on the pricier side of the water-bottle spectrum. The cheapest starter kit, which comes with a bottle and a pack of three flavor pods, will run you about $40; if you opt for a more expensive color and flavor, it could total $50. Subsequent three-packs of pods cost $8 each. Cheaper than a six-pack-a-day La Croix habit, for sure, but still a cost worth considering.
The pods are made of plastic, too, which is worth noting for eco-conscious water lovers, although Air Up notes that the exterior of pods are made from recyclable materials, while the interior is made from polyester. The pods aren't reusable, but Air Up states that refilling their water bottle will save you from adding single-use plastic water bottles to the landfill.
