And gluten-free. https://asarasi.com/

"Asarasi, a brand of sparkling water, gets its H2O from maple trees — which means that they managed to get by that whole 'organic' definition on a technicality...The company bottles the water from maple trees. On the brand's website, they explain that after the sugar is removed from the maple sap, pure, 'tree-filtered' water is leftover — which is about 97 per cent of the sap in the first place. ..Previously, the USDA had never certified a brand of water as organic, because none met the guidelines.

For a product to be certified organic, it must be produced without 'excluded' methods like genetic engineering, made using only allowed substances, and overseen by a USDA National Organic Program-authorized certifying agent.

Importantly, though, it also must come from something living, the way apple juice comes from a once-living apple or beef comes from once-living cow. Water, naturally, never fit this description.

Asarasi is now the exception, and is currently available in most Northeastern states for $6.99 for a 12oz four-pack carton and $2.00 per 12oz bottle." http://www.dailymail.co.uk/fem...d-organic-WATER.html

Hoping to try it.

They make syrup by boiling off the water. So if they're capturing the steam and recondensing it, isn't it basically just distilled water? Which actually isn't really good for drinking water. And you can buy distilled for under a buck a gallon.

and the bS in their video about the water "vanishing"? Geez, are people too stupid to know it comes back as rain and waters the trees again?

'the sugar is removed from maple sap'; whutt de heck?

As noted above, is that the long way of saying that this boiled then cooled water?

It's caffeine-free, free trade, gluten free, Halal, heart-healthy, Kosher, low sodium, Parve, PBA-free, plantation grown, porpoise safe, sugar and sweetener free, and vegan.

I'm surprised there is enough room on the label for the word "water."

It can still kill you if you inhale enough of it into your lungs,or drink enough of it in a short period of time.

Proof, if any were needed, that people who buy stuff because it's "certified organic" are idiots.

Brilliant!

This is what I see happening here...
So you, or someone, is making and selling Maple Syrup...
Steam is waste, a by product. All you do is capture, condense and bottle it! Vola!
Almost no expense to create.

I'm waiting for someone to invent dehydrated water.

Regular water is just too darn heavy to tote around.

A relative has been talking about the benefits of 'alkaline' water. Of course she has about 10 times the health issues as the rest of us.

A quick google search shows benefits of alkaline water to be minimal at best, virtually none for the average person. Of course the cost is 4x regular bottled water.

Water is not excluded.

Wow, good for them. Wish I was smart enough to take an incredible simple idea and market it to a bunch of suckers that would give their eye teeth for a 'feel good'concept.

This guy will soon be living in a Vanderbilt mansion while I'm looking for a spot to park my van down by the river.
