Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Let's start the review off by saying that this beverage does not taste bad for what it is. The problem is Genki Forest is advertising itself like La Croix, Sanzo, Bubly or Waterloo. It's not. It's fruit flavored diet pop. It has that cloying sweetness of artificial sweetener, sucralose to be exact, and no flavor in the product I purchased was natural. Comparing this to the above mentioned brands the difference is clear, but Genki Forest is intentionally positioning itself in a less crowded market that is currently growing rather than competing in the already crowded diet soda market. In all honesty it's really good diet pop, but that's not what I want and Genki Forest is hoping for consumers who won't check what's inside the can when they thing they're finding exotic flavors of sparkling water.
