Zesty, fresh, and delicious.
I've tried BadWater's pineapple a few times so decided to try their lime flavour. The product has a really nice colour and like their pineapple, it's very refreshing and full of flavour. The tequila isn't too overpowering and adds a nice little kick to the drink. I'm going to try strawberry next.

Probably OK if you like Tequila
Neither my wife nor I drinks Tequila (she hardly touches alcohol at all now), and though she has a much better sense of taste than me she’s currently lost it. Her reaction was “very bitter Bitter Lemon”, and if she were to drink any more she’d probably add a bit of sugar/lemonade/sugar syrup. On the hottest day of the year, I found it refreshing, but far too sour to drink any more.I assume a cheaper Tequila could have been used for the best, but “we only source from the best, including 100% agave Blanco tequila from Jalisco, Mexico. If it’s good enough for George Clooney’s Casamigos, then it’s good enough for us.” I can’t see the point in best quality spirit as a base, but this isn’t my type of drink in any sense. The cost and the George Clooney cachet (which I’m sure has the target market in mind) justify the price to some extent. The sourness would be reduced if, as suggested, you used it to make a cocktail.

Refreshing light take on margarita
Much nicer than white claw. Lime Margarita is refreshing, zesty and light. Very natural tasting lime. Don’t expect a traditional sweet sour margarita. It is a low calorie take on a margarita but still with more flavour than white claw. Think margarita but with a tiny drop of simple sugar and sparkling water. I usually like a lot of lime in my margarita and this really delivers with a zesty hit.

Tastes of bad water
I love the design and look of the can and the concept sounds delicious. The claim; 80 calories per can, Low Sugar, Low Carb, Gluten Free, Vegan | Bold Refreshing Taste sounds appealing.However I’ve tried a couple of these now and it just tastes of fizzy water with a very tiny hint of lime. Now I appreciate others mag have a different view but yea it’s refreshing but that’s about it. A tin of soda water with a squeeze of lime would taste the same. I cannot detect any tequila and haven’t tried enough to detect any alcohol content.There are no ingredients shown on the can as most drinks have, so I’ve no idea what it contains. Probably no tequila although it does claim to have a 4.5% alcohol content.Sorry guys but this isn’t doing it for me. Back to the Gordon’s G&T cans.

Bad water indeed
Badwater - never has a product been so aptly named, because this has to be the worst drink I've tasted in quite some time.It's hard to describe the taste, so let me paint you a picture. You've poured yourself a glass of lime cordial, only you accidentally diluted it too much and now it tastes really weak. And you had a headache, so you dumped an aspirin into the glass and let it dissolve. That's Badwater Tequila Soda and Lime.I don't know what I'm going to do with the remaining 11 cans; maybe it'll be better as a drain cleaner.

Not for me
This tequila and lime soda is definitely not for me.Doesn’t taste much of tequila or lime - it’s more fizz than anything.Pricey too for what it is.

Great on a hot day, reminds me of bitter lemon
I like an adult beverage and I'm always keen to try something new.This is low carb, no added sugar, gluten free, vegan. So I expected it to taste terrible or like overly watered down juice with a hint of artificial chemical sweetener, but this could not be further from the truth. It is delicious. When chilled ice cold it pours cloudy white and you are instantly hit with a fresh smell of lime. It's very subtly carbonated so won't cause any awkward burps.Flavour wise it's delicious. It's fresh and a hint of sour like a margarita. It's well balanced so it's not overly sweet or dry. It reminds me of bitter lemon soft drink. It is very very refreshing, perfect for hot weather and if I hadn't checked the packaging I wouldn't have noticed that it's low carb gluten free etc.I have had another creation by this brand and it did not let me down. So I was very chuffed that this was just as tasty.At 4.5% abv it's a good strength for most people and makes for a pleasant afternoon drink in the sun or at the end of a long hot day. I have had similar styles of drink that are 4% and both the Mrs and I couldn't stand them as the alcohol profile was too low to balance a good flavour. But this 4.5 works well.Value wise for 12 330ml cans these are not the best, but they are good quality and most importantly taste great. These are probably not going to be your choice for an entire evening, but if you want the have 1 or 2 or share with company they are a great choice. Highly recommended. Thank you for reading my review. I hope you found it useful

Not sweet or strong in flavour
I've only previously had tequila neat, and at the eye watering strength it usually comes in so I didn't know what to expect with this product but I can say I'm really impressed.The flavour is very subtle, not overly sweet at all and doesn't taste very strongly of alcohol - goes down really easily and not too gassy.At £2.50 per can (£30 for a case of 12) it isn't the cheapest for 330ml cans at this strength of 4.5% but it is different to other drinks out there.If you are feeling adventurous you could probably use this as a mixer....5 stars
