There are two types of people. Those who happily drink two litres of plain water a day without giving it a second thought.
And those (hello 👋) who get halfway through the afternoon, look at the untouched water bottle on the desk and suddenly find literally any other drink more appealing.
Which is why we’re always on the lookout for drinks that make staying hydrated feel a little less… worthy. Recently, eauYES caught our eye.
At first glance, it looks like another flavoured sparkling water. But dig a little deeper and there are a few things that make it stand out.
Just Two Ingredients
One of the biggest selling points is its simplicity. Each can contains naturally sourced sparkling mineral water and natural flavouring. That’s it.
No sugar.
No artificial sweeteners.
No calories.
No citric acid.
Just lightly sparkling mineral water with flavours including Pineapple Coconut, Raspberry Lime, Lemon Zest, Pink Grapefruit, Orange Blossom and Sour Apple.
Water… But a Bit More Interesting
I’ll admit, I like sparkling water. What I’m less keen on is when flavoured drinks leave that lingering artificial sweetness behind.
eauYES takes a different approach. The flavours are designed to be subtle rather than overpowering, making them feel more like a refreshing twist on mineral water than a soft drink pretending to be healthy. Sometimes that’s exactly what’s needed on a warm afternoon or alongside lunch.
A Thoughtful Approach
Another thing we liked? The story behind the brand.
eauYES is led by a family with more than 30 years’ experience of protecting and sourcing natural mineral water. The water is bottled at source, naturally rich in minerals and electrolytes, while the company also supports the mental health charity YoungMinds by donating 1p from every can sold. It’s also certified Carbon Neutral Britain, with all packaging fully recyclable.
Our Verdict
If, like us, you sometimes need a little encouragement to reach for something more refreshing than another coffee, eauYES feels like a genuinely interesting alternative.
Simple ingredients. Interesting flavours. And no unnecessary extras.
Sometimes that’s more than enough.
If you’re curious, the Taster Pack is probably the best place to start, it lets you discover your favourite flavour before committing to a full case. Now the only question is… Pineapple Coconut or Pink Grapefruit?
