What You Should Know

Waterloo Grape Sparkling Water is a boldly flavored, zero-calorie sparkling beverage typically shelved in the refrigerated or canned-beverage aisle next to other flavored seltzers, club sodas and calorie-free soft drinks. You’ll often find it in multipacks of 12-ounce cans (commonly marketed as a 144 fl oz pack) alongside mixers for cocktails and alternative soda options. It fits shopping trips that target everyday hydration, brunch carts seeking a soda substitute, and pantry-top-ups for gatherings where a nonalcoholic bubbly option is welcome. Waterloo’s brand voice leans modern and playful — bright colors, punchy flavor names and positioning that appeals to health-conscious millennials and Gen Z shoppers who want soda-like taste without sugar or calories. Label claims create a strong “health halo”: 0 calories, 0 sugar, Certified Vegan, Gluten-free, Non-GMO verified, Whole30 Approved and “natural flavors,” plus recycling and BPA-free lining notes. There’s no organic certification; the “natural” claims and certifications suggest purity and ethical concerns rather than ingredient simplicity. In processing terms, it’s an industrially packaged, carbonated water flavored with condensed natural flavor compounds — a lightly processed beverage rather than a whole food. Sensory details: crisp, effervescent bubbles deliver a clean mouthfeel with a pronounced grape aroma and a brisk, dry finish rather than sweetness; the ritual is chilled straight from the can, sipped between courses, used as a cocktail mixer, or popped open at picnics. The aluminum can and bright label make it feel sporty, convenient and ready-to-share at casual social moments.

Ultra-Processing Assessment

NOVA Score:4 / 4

Ultra-Processed
