Marketers are directing their strategies towards health-conscious consumers, with their 'add on the go/packaged' water enhancer drops/powders. Furthermore, consumers opt for mini-bottles of water drops, concentrated flavor enhancers that instantly transform plain water into a value-added drink, as these drops are claimed to contain health-based ingredients.
