Meet air up® – The Clever Way to Make Water More Exciting

Let's be honest here, we all know we should drink more water, but plain tap water isn't exactly the most exciting drink in the world. 

If you've ever found yourself reaching for a sugary soft drink or squash simply because you wanted a bit of flavour, then the innovative air up® system could be well worth a look.

Unlike traditional flavoured drinks, air up® doesn't actually add anything to the water itself. Instead, it uses a fascinating piece of science called retronasal olfaction. (Ed. What??)

In simple terms, most of what we think of as "taste" actually comes from our sense of smell. The specially designed scent pods release aromas as you drink, tricking your brain into perceiving flavour while you're actually drinking nothing more than plain water. It's an ingenious idea that has captured the imagination of millions of users around the world.

The system is straightforward. Fill the reusable bottle with ordinary tap water, pop on your chosen scent pod, and start drinking through the straw. As air passes through the pod, the natural aromas travel to your nose while you swallow, creating the sensation of flavoured water without adding sugar, sweeteners or calories to the drink itself.

One of the biggest attractions is the growing range of flavours. Fancy a refreshing Lemon? Perhaps Mango Peach, Cherry Kola, Bubblegum or even Virgin Mojito? With more than 25 different scent pods available, there's plenty of opportunity to find a favourite or mix things up from day to day. Each pod is designed to flavour around five litres of water, making them surprisingly long-lasting.

For anyone trying to cut back on fizzy drinks, fruit squash or sugary beverages, air up® offers an interesting alternative. Because you're still drinking plain water, you're hydrating without consuming added sugar or artificial colourings. Many people find that simply making water more enjoyable encourages them to drink more throughout the day.

Of course, the experience isn't identical to drinking a traditional flavoured drink. The flavour sensation is intentionally subtle, and some users report that certain pods are stronger than others. As with many food and drink products, personal preference plays a big part, with some people loving the concept while others prefer more conventional flavoured beverages.

Here at That's Food and Drink, we love seeing genuinely innovative ideas that encourage healthier habits without sacrificing enjoyment. Whether you're looking to drink more water at work, on your daily commute, at the gym or simply around the house, air up® is certainly one of the more intriguing products to appear on the drinks scene in recent years.

If you're curious, it could be one of those products that's worth trying for yourself, you may just discover that your favourite flavoured drink was plain water all along!
