waterdrop Microdrinks are small cubes made from vitamins and minerals and are designed to make hydration easy. The cubes are a healthy alternative to sugary beverages in plastic bottles since they are 100% sugar-free, created from plant and fruit extracts, and offered in various flavors to suit every mood and preference.
The waterdrop Microlyte category also introduced a new hydration-boosting cube comprising five electrolytes and nine vitamins. Microlyte is also naturally flavored, contains no sugar or caffeine, and does not come in a plastic bottle.
“We are thrilled to introduce waterdrop to Australia. With Australians focussing so much on health and sustainability, waterdrop is committed to encouraging consumers to drink more water in order to live healthier, longer and more sustainable lives,” said Australian waterdrop CEO Paul Sprokkreeff. “We are also determined to reduce plastic consumption and CO2 emissions as part of our mission to improve the planet.”
