I like to share the products I use on a regular basis and Hi Ball Sparkling Energy Water is one of them!

Even on a whole foods based vegan diet plan, it’s possible to need an extra boost on occasion. I am not alone when I say I am extremely active… There are fitness freaks and athletes everywhere and we like to push ourselves to the max. Our workouts are demanding physically and mentally. And then, most of us are active the other hours of the day until it’s time to collapse in bed. No matter how clean we eat, our bodies may say, “You need to chill for a few hours,” yet it’s 1:00 in the afternoon and we have another 6 hours of work to do. No need to suffer… Hi Ball Energy to the rescue!

My favorite is the Grapefruit Sparkling Energy Water. It has zero calories, zero sugar, and no artificial flavors or sweeteners. Additionally it contains vitamins B6 and B12, niacin, pantothenic acid, and organic panax ginseng extract. In combination with the organic guarana and caffeine, this drink packs a punch. The company also offers organic energy drinks that additionally contain a bit of organic juice and organic sugar. I haven’t tried these because I prefer to stay away from sugar, even organic sugar, as much as possible.

I’m not a fan of the taste of the majority of energy drinks out there. This one is refreshing with a very light flavor and no after-taste. If you didn’t know what it was, you would think it was sparkling water with a drop of fresh grapefruit juice.

I have found that one small can (only 8.4 oz) is more than enough to spike my energy through the roof for hours without the “crash” I experience with coffee. It also comes in 16 oz cans which is way too much for me.

This energy water is around $2.67 per small can at Whole Foods or Fresh Market. For the results, it’s worth the money.

Hi Ball Energy is unfortunately not a plant-based company. They have a coffee beverage that contains milk and a protein shake coming soon that is made with milk protein. I urge the company to go vegan! There is simply no reason to use dairy-based ingredients, especially in this day and age when there are countless alternatives available.
