Water is so good for you that you should be drinking at least 64 ounces a day. But try as we may, sometimes water gets boring and the 64 ounces don’t always make it down the hatch.

Some of us turn to diet soda, some turn to coffee, while others turn to Crystal Lite or other 0 calorie drink mixes.
Relative to living a healthy lifestyle, those products are good in some ways and bad in some ways. Diet soda and Crystal Lite have nasty sweeteners and dyes. Coffee has caffeine and turns your teeth brown.
The point is to find a tasty 0 calorie beverage with added vitamins and minerals that not only tastes good but also has additional benefits. If you are interested you should read my review below.
I tried the 3 new flavors of Sobe Lifewater and I have to say 2 of them are excellent. You will find all three of these 0 calorie Sobe Lifewater flavors at your local grocery store:
- yumberry pomegranate (for purification)
- goji apple pear (for fat loss)
- black and blue berry (with antioxidants)
What is Sobe Lifewater with PureVia?
Straight from the Sobe website:
“SoBe Lifewater with PureVia is a unique 0-calorie, naturally sweetened enhanced water beverage that not only gives you a high level of vitamins and antioxidants, but is also infused with natural herbal ingredients. With unique flavor combinations, Lifewater is naturally refreshing and thrilling!”
Which flavor was best?
Black and Blue Berry was my favorite flavor. It tasted like a blueberry/grape drink and is apparently “packed with antioxidants”. I would definitely buy this one on purpose.
Yumberry Pomegranate was pretty good too. I would buy it if Black and Blue Berry was sold out.
Which flavor was not so good?
Goji Apple Pear was boring. It just sort of tasted like a bitter pear juice. I wouldn’t buy it on purpose, even if all the other flavors were sold out. If someone gave it to me for free I would drink it though.
Check out the 2009 Superbowl commercial.
Did Sobe give me these products for free?
Yes. They sent me the 3 bottles in a tube, like as if it were a rolled up poster or something. I was pretty excited to get something other than a brown cardboard box.
Did Sobe pay me for this review?
No, I don’t do paid reviews. This is my honest review of the three Sobe Lifewater 0 calorie drinks. I have to admit I wouldn’t review this product if they didn’t send it to me.
Also, there are about five 40 calorie Sobe Lifewaters, but I didn’t try any of those flavors.
Would I buy this product for myself?
Yes, I already have. I enjoy the Black and Blue Berry flavor, which I sometimes pick up at my local convenience store.

OH! You’re my new favorite blogger fyi
I haven’t tried the SoBe yet, but may give it a sip. I use a local product “Adirondack Spring Water” with zero calories and enhanced flavors to get my fill up.
We took your rating into account and reviewed the Black and Blue Berry flavor and it was awesome. This vitamin water is the first sugar free drink we’ve tried with PureVia, and all I can say is I hope this new sweetener catches on. I’ve already been through two four packs.
Thanks for the review!

This water is good! I started drinking the 0. cal ones and they are real good, the others are just as good but have the cals and suger. Highly recommend
The Fuji Apple Pear is the only flavor I’ve tasted so far and I have to say, it’s quite delicious. I love it!!
Well I’m glad you love it, but I’m not into the Fuji Apple Pear. I bought another one just to try it again and I can definitely say that I like the other two better.
Black and blue berry flavor is the best
I agree with Pat. Def.
About that Yumberry Pomegranate. Did you notice that the ingredients label did not include either? How does Pepsi get away with calling this Ginger/Dandelion potion “Yumberry Pomegranate?”
I guess they can name it whatever they want no matter what’s in it. No one seems to care. Clearly there’s no such thing as Yumberry, and I don’t recall the label not mentioning pomegranate, but it’s probably true. Huge corporations can do as they please in this society.
I have only tried the fuji apple pear, and I feel like I’m addicted to it it’s so good!!
I don’t drink things with artificial sweeteners, so I’m thrilled to FINALLY find a 0-calorie drink that I absolutely love, and feel great about drinking.
I also quit artificial sweeteners like aspartame in “diet coke” and sucralose in “Lipton green tea to go”. I like almost tall the flavors in this Life water yet it is sweet. My question is what is the sweetner in this drink??
So it is Purevia that is the sweetener. I seems to be the best zero cal. subsitute for sugar at this time. check it out.

Yes, I enjoy Purevia.
Also, Sobe 0 Calories Lifewater has a couple new flavors. I tried one called Acai Fruit Punch today and it’s great!
I love the zero calorie SoBe Lifewaters. But I have a question. The label says zero calories in an 8 oz serving but there are also 6 grams of carbohydrates. As far as I know 6 carbs is 24 calories. The bottle is 20 oz or 2.5 servings, so 24 X 2.5 = 60 calories per bottle.
What am I missing?
Ed: it’s true. I can’t explain it, but they do have 6 grams of carbs and 0 calories, which definitely does not add up. You should call the company and complain. I don’t have time because I have to answer blog comments and questions.
I can explain the 6 carbs/0 calories thing. If you’ll notice in the list of ingredients they use ERYTHROTOL. Erythrotol is a sugar alcohol. It is a carb BUT….our bodies cannot breakdown and use erythrotol and therefore we cannot get any calories from it. It just passes thru our sytem unused. So even though it has 6 carbs they are 6 unusable carbs that just pass thru our body and we dont get any calories from them.
Thanks for the feedback Sandie!
Fuji pear is the best. Delicate, but flavorful.
Please tell me where I can purchase SoBe lifewater 0 Calories in 22314 zip code area. Thank you.
Bert: At your local convenience store or supermarket.
I have to say this if far the best bottled water I have ever tasted!! I have never been a water drinker at all, but I have to admit that I have found myself drinking more than the required amount of water needed on a daily basis by drinking the sobe life water!! I feel much better and energized just from water. This is the best solution for anyone who doesn’t like the sweetner waters or plan old tap water!! This works just wonderful for me. I’m still trying to figure out how they get the sweetness in the water with no calories or sweetners added.
Thanks, Sobe Sorry for taking so long to try.. You now have a customer for life with me!!! : }
Well the last time I check the definition of a calorie was – a unit of heat equal to the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one kilogram of water by one degree at one atmosphere pressure … since 6 carbs has 4 calories per gram which = 60 calories per bottle it would have an affect on your system. Show me the proof that erythrotol doesn’t have an effect. According to the FDA if its on the label, it has a outcome. This is the same way that many labels lie to you and why america is fat… we try to cover up the truth so products sell.
Lies! All lies! Thanks for your comment TJ, I’m sure that point has some merit.
this is the way america works, they can’t just tell you the truth … there are too many loop holes in the system and this is the way MANY labels lie to you to think they are lower calorie than they really are. Keep America Fat … so diets sell. Fitness is the number one product that people will spend money on to lose weight, if we keep them fat “we” keep making money.
I first tried this product at Costco and bought a case and now I absoulutely love this drink. I love fuji apple pear the best but I drink them all. I wish more stores carried the 12 bottle case.
Everyone seems to love the Fuji Apple Pear, but that’s honestly the one I like the least. Right now I’m sitting around drinking Yumberry Pomegranate and they have some awesome new flavors too. I get them at Walmart, Target, or KMart for a buck a bottle.
