Best of Expo West: Ayala’s Herbal Water

This post is part of a series, Best of Expo West 2009: My Favorite Things.

I bet you thought I was done writing about Expo West. I still have several more posts forthcoming. I found so many wonderful products I have to share with you all.

Ayala’s Herbal Water is hands down the best tasting water I’ve ever had. I’ve never tasted anything remotely like this water. It’s like drinking tea or wine: very flavorful and multifaceted.

At the same time, it’s very subtle. Ayala’s Herbal Water doesn’t knock you over with heavy-handed flavors, nor is it sweetened like most flavored waters on the market.

They have delicious, creative flavor combinations, like Lemongrass Mint Vanilla and Cloves Cardamom Cinnamon and Lavender Mint. I can’t tell you which one I like the best because they are all so good.

This is a real foodie’s drink.

And what’s in it? Filtered water and organic extracts of herbs. That’s it. None of this sugar-water masquerading as “vitamin water”.

I’m not a big water drinker. I prefer to drink raw milk or kombucha or kefir. But sometimes I hanker for cool, refreshing water — and it’s so wonderful to have a little flavor just to liven things up.

I’ll definitely be buying more Herbal Water. I also think they’d make a fabulous addition to cocktails. Gonna have to test that out…
