Best vitamin drinks, tried and tested 2024

There was a time in the early 2000s when vitamin drinks were all the rage.

Bottles of Glacéau’s VitaminWater were stacked in celebrity fridges glimpsed fleetingly on MTV Cribs tours and featured in glaringly obvious product placements throughout our favourite CW shows (Gossip Girl being the most frequent culprit).

However, Glacéau is a subsidiary of Coca-Cola and VitaminWater was quickly declared to be less rich in vitamins and more chock-full of sugar, thereby losing its status as a health-conscious drink. That’s why you’ll struggle to get your paws on a bottle of the well-marketed elixir these days.

Yet new vitamin drinks are making a comeback as we progress into a health-conscious, wellness-focused zeitgeist. From specialised, electrolyte-boosting powders to nutrient-rich juices which promise to deliver all the daily vitamins you could possibly need, we’re spoiled for choice.

We spoke to Aimee Ambassador for insight into the re-emerging world of vitamin drinks.
