Summary
This sparkling water contains carbonated water and natural flavors, which are highly processed and lack transparency in their composition. While the product is free from artificial sweeteners and dyes, the presence of natural flavors and its high processing level limit its score. The minimal ingredient list is a positive aspect, but the processing level prevents a higher rating.
