Crush, Lemonade, Liquid Water Enhancer – New, Better Taste (4 Bottles, Makes 96 Flavored Water Drinks) 1.62 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)

This is a review of the Crush lemonade liquid water enhancer. I've been trying a few liquid enhancers, and this is easily one of my favorites. I went strictly 'no sugar' in my beverages over 20 years ago, and this is the first no-sugar lemonade that has really tasted good. I keep bottles of this at work and home now. The only negative I would point out, and the reason this is a 4-star review and not 5 stars, is that something in the liquid crystallizes. Other reviews mention this as well. At first, I thought it was an issue with the bottle and how the liquid came out, but realized that it's actually something solid/crystalized blocking the outlet. I don't think it's a contaminant, just something about the liquid that binds up. Some bottles are worse than others. Whatever it is, it is water soluble as the crystalized pieces will dissolve in water. If Crush can solve that problem, I would give it 5 stars.

I really like this stuff and and have ordered every flavor multiple times. I have 2 observations: The Lemonade flavor crystallizes for some reason in the bottle, shaking breaks it up, but causes the squirt to be very unpredictable - this has been every one of at least 30 bottles I've used in the last couple of years. The Strawberry has WAY too much red dye, even diluted to drinking strength it stains everything plastic, including laminate countertop.

I really like this water enhancer and I can't get this locally anymore. Turned to Amazon. The last couple deliveries have had the flavoring crystalized in the bottle. This must be most of the flavor because it's not as tangy. Not sure what's up with that. If the next delivery is crystalized I'll cancel the subscription. Wonder if I'm getting older stock.

The container that the juice is in is crap. Juice pours out quickly when the flow regulates falls into container. The enhancer, the golden liquid, itself is good. Won't buy again until the squeeze bottle is fixed.

This is my main go to for flavoring water. I’m super addicted to it as the lemonade is so tasty. I’m trying to cut back even. People should note that the lemonade flavor contains Yellow 5 or tartrazine which causes allergic reactions in some people. I don’t have an allergic reaction and it isn’t banned in the EU so I still feel ok about drinking it but I do wish they made a version without artificial dyes.
