[Nestlé's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/outshine) Pure Life Fruity Water is a new collection of fruit-flavored water for kids that has zero calories, sugar, sweeteners, preservatives or artificial flavors. The products are packaged in the first first Tetra Pak cartons with paper straws in the US and are sold in multi-packs to make sure kids kids can stay refreshed and replenished.

The products are enhanced with a hint of natural fruit flavors and [electrolytes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/powerade-power-water), each of which is represented by a fun [Apple](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pip-organic-apple-fizz), Watermelon and Tropical Twist character.

While water can seem like a far less interesting choice as compared to high-calorie, high-sugar beverages, these drinks for kids are formulated, flavored and branded to make the experience of drinking water enjoyable.
