Water Booster — What do you want to feel like today?
From the website:

Delo Water Boosters
Here's a fabulous innovation by Marguerite Deperrois so groundbreaking we immediately fell in love with it — a water booster.
What's a water booster, you ask?
A fabulous, 100% organic additive to the water you are drinking.
But it's no banal powder or syrup — rather, it's a smart booster cap that you simply screw onto your standard water bottle until you hear it click.
Then 50 centiliters of 100% organic herbal essence is released into the bottle below — you shake it a wee bit and voila, you are ready to enjoy.
5 different flavors are available: Energy, Sexy, Balance, De-stress and Fitness (called Minceur in French).
Each uses different ingredients to promote the desired effect.
• In Energy you'll find the usual dose of Guarana but this time combined with Acerola to boost your defenses and Ginseng for your vitality — combine it with a hint of Orange and Cinnamon and you've got an energizing taste.
• Sexy uses Ginger for stamina, Galangal to relax and incline sexual desires and Cardamom to increase your blood circulation — add Bee Balm and you have a fabulous tropical taste.
• Balance uses Peppermint to provide energy, Nettle to supply minerals, trace elements and amino acids and Ash Tree to enable good elimination of rejects and prevent water retention — combined with French Vanilla it creates a refreshing taste sensation.
• De-stress uses Walnut and Calamint to calm you down at night, Hawthorn to relieve tension and Orange Blossom to soothe your tummy and relax your body — this is combined with the coolness of Verbena for a fruity taste.
• Fitness uses Yerba Mate and Bitter Orange to burn off the flubber and Green tea to decrease the assimilation of fat and sugar while draining excess water stored in your body. And to make it all look pretty, Mango, Litchi and Kiwi reinforce the natural glow of your complexion so you'll look good while working out. The flavor is enhanced with Rosemary and Licorice for a smooth taste.
Sound exciting?
We think so too.
And because we couldn't decide which ones we wanted to get, we have put together a pack of all 5 flavors in one.
This way you can try them all to find your favorite.
Now, if you are wondering how all this goodness gets into this little cap, well, that's the magic part.
Actually it's not magical at all — the herbal essences are created through a flash process to preserve the benefits of the ingredients and are 100% organic and natural, with no chemicals.
Each booster cap mixed with a small bottle of water tastes fabulous and provides your body with the elements it needs.
One booster cap a day is all you need as the effect is immediately noticeable, and including it in your daily routine is highly recommended.
You can use any water you like as long as it is chilled — who likes lukewarm water anyway?
Oh, one last thing: the sugar content in the fruit is used to add a touch of sweetness, so each dose contains 5g of fructose (4 kcal per 100 ml).
That's it, now get your hands on those booster caps and be the first to savor the goodness.
And if you want to show off your inner Frenchy, look at the name and change the pronunciation a little bit and suddenly you are saying 'some water' in French.
Bien fait!

Ok, my French is rusty (err...nonexistent) but going to the manufacturers site to get a grasp on this, it looks like each of these is only good for one use. Single serving. Hmmm....you just made that $2 water now cost $5.
Something I've done lately...grow my own mint. A prof of mine is always doing this and it got me thinking...on my way out the door, fill up my tap water bottle, tear a few leaves off the plant, twist and pinch them just a little to get the oil flowing, and shove into the bottle. Practically free.

Am I being paranoid or does this post sound exactly and entirely like an ad for these folks with no 'wry' input from you, Joe? And, if so, why? As Clifyt gently points out this product is specious at best.
