Liquid Death

Has anyone tried this? It's sparkling water that's supposed to "kill your thirst" and I have to say....the "Doctor Death" flavor is the best one.

I've been a big fan of Liquid Death for a few years now. Back when I worked for CVS, I had a Liquid Death rep come into my store back in 2020, and we hit it off. I had never heard of it, and I believe they were only in like GNC at that point (at least in my area), and they were trying to expand the product to retail pharmacies then. I used to drink the Severed Lime all the time.

The product itself really isn't anything special, but the marketing that company does is phenomenal. They are a very interesting follow on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/liquid-death/ Wild stuff all the time.

It's flavored water.

You're paying for the marketing campaign.

I often don't drink flavored water because of the bad after taste most of it comes with.

And so that it's in a can! Cans are supposedly more sustainable and better for the environment... That's what they're selling anyway.

I suppose there's some truth there.
Rust has got to be a lot friendly for the environment than a world full of microplastics choking life out on land, sea & air!!!!!

I would recommend you do a bit of research.

The vast majority of aluminum cans, including the ones we're talking about, have a VERY thin plastic coating inside to prevent the metal from leeching into the drink.

While the coating is microscopic, it is still plastic, and given the millions of cans produced every year, it adds up to a lot of plastic, that, when the can is recycled, is burned off ends up in the hot air erupting from a furnace to either escape into the atmosphere, or if it is captured and scrubbed out, in a landfill.

No, I haven't tried it, as I tend to just stick to the basics: coffee, tea, water, and the occasional glass of wine.

Eh, I'm probably allergic to that thin layer of plastic. Thanks for letting me know about it because I probably wouldn't have known otherwise.

I like the plain sparkling water. Stuff’s great.
