Metromint's New Twists by Evan Orensten
When we first tasted Metromint we were impressed with its new take on flavored water.
Following the success of their original Peppermint, they added Spearmint, and today introduced two new flavors—Lemonmint (our favorite) and Orangement. Like the original, nicely balanced flavors of mint and lemon or mint and orange are all that is added to the pure water—you won't find any sweeteners or other chemicals—making it a perfect tonic for the gym or an alternative to less healthy beverage options.
Metromint is widely available. Check out their site for retailers or to order online. A 500 ml. bottle retails for around $2.

Glass Beverage Bottles
This version of a glass bottle in the shape of a plastic one continues the trend of doing up disposables in nicer materials and is, indeed, a Crate and Barrel knock-off of a similar concept by Roost (also makers of home furnishings but without the corporate baggage). It does however offer two design differences that caught our attention. The option of a smaller size...

Ayala's Herbal Water

While flavor combos like "lavender mint lemongrass thyme," "cinnamon orange peel" and "ginger lemon peel" might sound like an overpowering infusion, the effect is subtle, mellow and...
