I&#8217;m neither a fan nor a hater.  But I was curious enough about this hibiscus sparkling water to give it a try.  It&#8217;s somewhat better than the limoncello one, but still not my cup of tea &#8211; or sparkling water.<br><br>First, I don&#8217;t actually detect much hibiscus flavor.  What I detect is a flavor similar to, albeit les pronounced than, the berry sparkling waters in the market.  I completely despise those flavors, but I can bare with this one because it&#8217;s lighter.  Still, I&#8217;m also only finishing the box because I don&#8217;t want them to go to waste.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This water smells exactly like lemon buttercream frosting.
