Since having my twins, I have started to take my health and fitness very seriously. I take my vitamins, eat a balanced diet, try to get adequate sleep, and exercise.I got my hands on a Fitbit Flex last year, and I am so into it at the moment. I am obsessed with hitting my daily target of 10,000 steps, and I love the way it charts my sleep behaviour – how long I sleep for, how long it takes me to fall asleep, how many times I wake up at night, and so on. I send my daily steps to Twitter, so I know how well I am doing, and I am loving my progress so far.
However I struggle to eat loads of fruits and drink lots of water. I am just not a fruits person, and drinking water has always been a chore for me, even though I know the benefits of eating fruits and drinking loads of water. So when the opportunity came for me to review the Acquablend Water Bottles, I jumped at it, because this bottle could solve this very issue.
If this is your first time hearing of Aquablend Water Bottles, here is a description for you from the brand:
Acquablend provide a great range of BPA-free fruit infusion water bottles designed for use at home, in the office, at the gym or when enjoying outdoors. Since its inception, the Acquablend bottle has proved a compelling and nutritionally smart choice and a sensible natural alternative to sugary and fizzy drinks. Our fruit infusion water bottles have each been designed with the user in mind.
That’s why the fruit infused water bottles by Acquablend is more than just a bottle, it is a journey to a healthier lifestyle. By harnessing the benefits of drinking fruit infused water as part of your everyday routine, we can support that journey with our recipes, tips and videos as well as stories from the Acquablend Community.
So this bottle is all about a combination of fruits and water in a bottle, to create a flavoured taste.
Here are my thoughts:
PROS
- I love the elegant packaging, so bright and pretty, makes me feel like drinking water from the it. I got colour blue and green, but they also come in red, pink, black, white and purple.
- I found the water bottles easy to set up. I had it cleaned in the top shelf of the dishwasher (but can also be hand washed), and I cut up some cucumbers, kiwis, and oranges, and placed them in the fruit section, and added some water to start with. So it was oranges in the green bottle, and cucumber and kiwi in the blue.
- The water tasted flavoured immediately, the fruit infusion is amazing.
- The water bottles can be kept in the fridge or left outside in normal temperature.
- This bottles are super affordable. I got the twist top bottles, and they go for £24.99, but currently on sale for £10.99, so get in there!
- These high quality looking bottles are great to use both inside and outside the home, so work, school, gym, and so on.
- They are dish washer safe, stain resistant, as well as leak proof.
- The drinking sprout is very comfortable, but you can pour in a cup, if you prefer that.
CONS
None.
The Acquablend water bottles are a dream come true! I don’t have to feel forced to drink water anymore, these bottles make me want to drink water.
There are various fruit infused water recipes on the Acquablend website, which I will be stalking for more inspiration and ideas. The next recipe I will be trying this afternoon, will be the strawberry and cucumber recipe. It sounds very tasty.
Have you tried the Acquablend Water bottle? What are your thoughts?

I have always been struggling with drinking enough water as well.. I just find it so boring! I get most of my water intake from green teas at the moment, but I would love to start drinking more water as well. I have never tried a aquablender before, but I occasionally through in a lot of really thin cucumber slices in my water to give it a different flavor. It would be great to be able to do that straight into a water bottle instead!
Yea it is great. Try it Mia x
I also struggle to drink water. It’s just so uninspiring. I have a terrible soda habit and I KNOW I need to drink more water. This sounds perfect! I may have to treat myself. Especially with the saving.
Yea the saving is good.
I love my Fitbit too! I drink tons of water through the day but I really do like the idea of fruit infused water. These bottles look fab.
They are so fab. Thanks Becca x
I’ve seen these a few times before and they do seem like a really nice way of encouraging you to drink water x

I love fruit infused water! I’ve been thinking about buying a proper infusion bottle for a why but never known what to try, these sound great!
They are amazing Kira x
I could really do with one of these – I don’t drink enough water and I certainly don’t eat enough fruit! H x
Yea same here x
These look a brilliant way to encourage you to drink more water. I haven’t tried fruit infused water – I always imagined it to taste very weak?
It is a brillant way to drink more water. The taste is not as strong as flavoured water, but I like the light taste especially with cucumber x
I always struggle to drink enough water, prefer a c up of tea.And I has been reading your blog fowhile now but never knew you had twins.

What a neat way to add some flavor to your water. I’m probably not getting enough water each day right now.
Yea it is. You should try it.
What a great idea – I’ve never seen anything like that before. Unfortunately I’m a terrible fizzy drink addict!
Then this may help Colette. It may give you the illusion of drinking a fizzy drink?
These bottles are awesome! It might sound peculiar but try adding herbs like mint. It makes the water so refreshing!
Oh thanks for the tip. I will try that xo
I Love my fit bit too it really motivates you to get moving! I agree that having a good water bottle makes you remember and want to drink more water X

Really want to try these, they sound so good, love the idea of the orange flavoured water, and maybe strawberries too.
Yea both fruits taste great in water xo
I always have infused water in the fridge during the summer, but I really should do it all year round. These bottles look fab
I know right! So fab xo
Love these bottles – I have one of each and I use them regularly. They are at BeFit London next week and I know they have an offer on their website if anyone is interested. Click on the BeFit banner on their home page – I think it’s on that page.
Ok. Will do. Thanks
These look great, I definitely need to drink more water, but like most people just find it too boring, but this sounds like a great compromise as I love fruit, so why not combine the two, and they look super funky too.
These bottles make drinking water much more interesting xo
I love the sound of this, I just have a Brita one that I carry with me but sometimes plain water can just become a little boring the idea that you can add stuff with this makes it so much more appealing xx
They have just updated their home page. There is a £5 off coupon if you are interested.
Yea it helps me drink tons of water x
Hi I should show this to my mum. Such a good idea – love it. 😊
Ah nice x
