DASH Water has released a new flavour just in time for summer - and we can vouch for it being seriously refreshing.
Limes are the latest wonky fruit being reclaimed from landfill and used in the British brand's cans of fizzy water. DASH Lime is made from just three simple ingredients: fresh spring water, bubbles and wonky limes. Like the other cans in the range, it has no added sugar, sweeteners or calories.
The brand says that it's great for using in low-calorie or 0% alcohol mojito, and I actually think it'd be great for a very quick and simple vodka lime and soda.
Of course, it can also be enjoyed as is, and I found the taste of the lime to be quite subtle but, like the other flavours in the DASH family, undeniably refreshing.
The founders of DASH Water started the company to do their bit to fight against food waste. The brand only uses bent, crushed, curved, knobbly, or misshapen fruit that is deemed not 'attractive' enough for supermarkets.
They explain: 'At DASH we judge our ingredients on taste alone - looks never come into it. So while we are fussy about flavour we don’t care if it’s bumped, curved, broken or squashed. We want to do our bit to fight food waste so by saying yes to produce that others say no to, we make drinks that taste delicious and in a small way help raise awareness about the big issue of waste. One bashed up berry, curly cucumber and lopsided lemon at a time.'
Limes not your thing? The other flavours available are mango, peach, raspberry, lemon, cucumber and blackcurrant.
