An Innovative Way to Add Flavor to Your Water
Didn’t think the words water and enjoyable could be used in the same sentence? With new fruit infuser water bottles, water is truly becoming more enjoyable.
Many inventors have been trying to create the perfect fruit infuser water bottle to change the lives of water drinkers all around the world. Some have even taken their ideas to the well known television show, Shark Tank.
15-year-old Carter Kostler had taken his own fruit infuser water bottle called the Define Bottle to the television show. After the show aired, Carter was awarded one of Entrepreneur’s Most Brilliant New Inventions.
The Define Bottle product was also promoted by President Bill Clinton at the Clinton Foundation “Health Matters” Conference.
“I was truly inspired by Carter Kostler’s entrepreneurial spirit and drive,” business teacher JoAnn Peralta said. “He is proof that age does not matter when it comes to achieving your goals.”
Whether you have the one shown on Shark Tank or the one from Amazon, these fruit infuser bottles are changing the way people are drinking water. It’s a healthier alternative to sugary soda or even juices that contain real fruit, which are often packed with sugar.
“I think these water bottles are becoming popular because people don’t like the taste of regular water,” senior Crystal Rizzuto said. “It makes drinking water and [being] healthier a little more enjoyable.”
It’s a simple idea to help many people. Most individuals do not drink as much water than they should. It’s typical to see people with their coffee, soda, iced tea, or sports drinks. But these water bottles are on the rise. They get people’s attention.
“With fruit inside these water bottles, they’re definitely different from the usual water bottles,” junior Rachel Focht said. “I think the fact that it is different, is what makes them so popular.”
