Drops of flavor

NORTHFIELD, Ill. — Kraft’s new entry in the water-
flavoring category, MiO Liquid Water Enhancer, is the first new product category the company has entered in 15 years. The zero-calorie line of concentrated liquid flavorings packaged in a sleek egg-shaped dropper bottle clearly is different than other water enhancers on the market. Promotion for the product focuses on “personalizing” flavors.


MiO was launched in six flavors and retails for $3.99. A bottle is designed to flavor 24 servings. USA Today recently reported that the water-flavoring market reached $1 billion.
