Polar Seltzer Water Original, 12 fl oz cans, 18 pack

We love these in our house. Crisp taste, affordable, sparkling water/club soda/seltzer. Will continue to purchase.

Purchased this for my dad who is trying to cut down on soda but loves the carbonation. This was a great substitute for the price and he asks if I can purchase more for him when he is finished so I am happy with this product!

Love this Polar original seltzer water. There are times I want the fizz without anything extra and this does it for me.

Taste great!!

String and refreshing. I use this for whiskey cocktail and this is the best.

This is, hands down, the best seltzer water I have ever had. It is not a weak substitute for soda that still leaves you craving sugar and scraping by, it is a superior replacement that hits harder, feels great, tastes great and is significantly cheaper (despite the aggravating price fluctuation, which I'll get to). For most of my forty years, I drank Mountain Dew. Daily. Three to four cans, two on days where I was behaving. Original, Code Red, Baja Blast with Taco Bell, I once drove from North Carolina to South Florida non-stop on Game Fuel, just one bottle after another. When I wound up getting a root canal from my bad habit three years ago, I finally decided to try quitting soda. I attempted many popular seltzer brands, but none of them had the strong carbonation to keep me from getting a few sodas each week, or even outright relapsing and getting a couple twelve-packs of Code Red. Until Polar Seltzer. I'm beyond grateful Polar Seltzer was, at the time, $8 or $9 for an 18-pack, which made it easy to give it a shot. The quality is immediately noticable. The carbonation is second-to-none. You can open a can at night, realize how late it is and stick the sucker in the fridge and go to bed, come back to it in the morning and it's still going strong. The flavor is, bizarrely as I'm talking about Original Polar here, terrific. It just tastes great to drink. It's now been over a year since I switched to Polar and I haven't gone back to soda. There isn't even the slightest hint of a craving for it. Caffeine, sure, I still get a little of that every day from other non-sodas (G-Fuel or Sparkling Ice are good substitutes I've found). But Polar Seltzer Original is the number one thing I drink besides regular water. If I were rating this on quality alone, it's the easiest five stars imaginable. But I'm not. There are issues. As many other reviewers have mentioned, the shipping is imperfect. 18-can packs is great, that's huge! Order two for under $25, you've got 36 cans that will last a good while. As you can see from the photos, a lot of people do exactly that. But this leads to a lot of beat up cans from poorly handled shipping that are difficult to open because the aluminum is warped at the top. Additionally, while I do recommend Original in the highest possible regard, I do not recommend the flavored variants. The two I tried, Raspberry and Lime, tasted more like the attempt at fruit flavoring was tepid and clashing with the drink more than mixing with it. Other brands I've tried do the fruit flavoring better because the carbonation in those drinks isn't as strong as it is in Polar, which allows the flavoring to dominate, I think. Your milage may vary though, especially as other reviewers on Amazon seem to love Polar's flavored variants, so take my advice with a grain of salt there. Finally, the price fluctuations. It wasn't going to stay at $9 forever. I get that. Even at $11, these 18 packs are an absolute steal. But do yourself a favor; look at the Price History. It should be near the top, little blue lettered hyperlink, opens a Rufus AI window that shows the ridiculous amount of price fluctuation Polar Seltzer Original is doing. 30 days, 90, it doesn't matter. $9.30, $12, $11.25, $13.50. It's been like this for over SIX MONTHS. They just keep jacking up the price and then lowering it, often several times a week. It's infuriating. Either Polar or Amazon, somebody needs to fix that. It's a bad look and doesn't engender a lot of customer loyalty when you can't trust the price to stay the same over the course of even three days. Having said all of that, and acknowledging the frustrations, I do still recommend Polar Seltzer. It is the absolute king of sparkling waters, and has completely freed me of my soda addiction.

Great value, nice tasting and refreshing sparkling water/seltzer in more easily recyclable packaging (cans are always better than bottles). Sometimes this has been shipped using USPS though, and not every can has survived the journey. The last delivery came rewrapped with three busted cans and a lot of damp packaging! Works well as a mixer for fruit juices for those looking for a lighter-weight beverage with less sugar.

Awesome!
