Influenster Vox Box: Flavorfy with Dasani Drops- Review





Well, I got my first VoxBox in the mail from Influenster! It only took 2 business days to get here, too, so color me impressed! It came in a rather large box, and I have to say, the box was even pretty! So, good job Dasani and Influenster!


Now, since I plan to do VoxBox reviews whenever I get them on this blog, let me go ahead and explain the basic principle of the ‘VoxBox’ to you. To be simple, once you’re an Influenster member, you sign up every once in a while, to get a box full of free samples, sometimes it’s beauty, sometimes food, laundry soap, etc. You take a survey to see if you qualify for it, and if you do, in a week or two, you’ll get a box full of stuff. This is the VoxBox.

I got the Dasani Drops VoxBox, and upon opening it, I found quite a few Dasani items. Inside was a bottle of water, and two different flavors of Dasani Drops, one was Pink Lemonade, the other was Cherry Pomegranite. I stuck the bottle in the freezer for a couple of hours, and decided to take a nap to let the water get cold.

 About an hour later, I popped open the bottle, and gave my Dasani Drops a little squirt into the bottle. I opted to use the Pink Lemonade, I wasn’t feeling Cherry Pomegranite right then and there. I went with 6 decent squirts, but it says flavor to taste, and that’s just what sounded good and tasted good to me. You can add more or less, flavor to taste.

I’ve been drinking it for about 30 minutes, and I have to say… I’m rather impressed! It’s very tasty, doesn’t smack of artificial sweetener like so many of the drops on the market do, and doesn’t leave a horrible aftertaste. Honestly, it’s better than the Mio drops, and that says something because those were honestly the best ones on the market before. I’m working to stop drinking as much soda, and this could make water a tasty alternative to soda for so many people.

So well done, Dasani! I rank the drops a 4.5 out of 5 stars, simply because while the aftertaste is minimal, it does leave a slight aftertaste. I’m still hunting for the drink flavoring that doesn’t do that, so I’ll save that extra .5 of a star for one that doesn’t have an aftertaste.
