'SQUASH'D' is the name of a new type of liquid water enhancer from [Robinsons](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/premium-squashes) that comes in an ultra-compact form that's ideal for on-the-go use.

The palm-sized portable packets can be flipped open and squeezed in order to deliver concentrated drink mixes in Orange & Peach, Apple & Blackcurrant and Summer Fruits flavors with no added sugars.

Many consumers are becoming interested in [flavored water products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/radnor-splash) because they offer health benefits without sacrificing nutrition or taste. Rather than buying a full bottle of water that's already been flavored and packaged in a ready-to-drink format, consumers are able to use this liquid water enhancer to enjoy as much as a flavor infusion as they desire when on the go.
