Summary

This seltzer is made from carbonated water and natural flavors, indicating minimal processing and a clean ingredient list. However, the use of natural flavors introduces a slight level of processing and potential variability in ingredient sourcing, which slightly impacts the overall score. The absence of contaminants and harmful additives supports a high rating, but the lack of transparency about the specific source of the water prevents it from reaching the top tier.
