As many people know, I’m a Vital Proteins Ambassador and have been using Vital Proteins Collagen for over a year now. Vital Proteins sends me products to try, and I share my favorites or answer questions people have. I’m not obligated to write any review including a vital proteins collagen water review but I like to share what I like.
One of the most common questions I get is: Which is best?
Unflavored peptides?
Whey?
Beauty Greens?
Collagen peptides?
Like most anything, it depends on your goals. Any quality Collagen can benefit most people. I like to have it after a run because it’s easy, portable, and I can get protein in.
I’ve written several posts of how it’s personally helped me, including:
Why Collagen Post Run?
Hair and Nail Benefits of Collagen
Skin Benefits from Collagen

Before we Dive into More Different Products, a Few Things About All Vital Protein Products:

- Contain All Real Food
- Dairy free
Always keep in mind these statements have not been evaluated by the food and drug administration. The products are not intended to diagnose, treat, or cure disease.
Recently, I had the privilege to try their new Vital Proteins Collagen Water Flavors. I appreciate that Vital Proteins Collagen Water is easy, packable, and transportable. Someone emailed and asked me to write a vital proteins collagen water review by flavor.
If I do a race, or decide to run somewhere away from my house, I don’t have to worry about a source of protein afterward. I can just rehydrate with collagen water.
Before I talk about all of the flavors, here are a few benefits of the collagen boosting water:
- 10 Grams of Collagen. I’ve blogged about before, but collagen supports healthy hair, skin, bones, and joints.
- It’s made with whole food ingredients and real fruit juice.
They Now Have 5 Different Flavors:
The Vital Proteins Collagen Water Orginal:
The original has the taste of lemon water. It’s refreshing but light and doesn’t feel overpowered in any way. Each serving contains 10g of collagen and 1g of sugar from the juice of real fruit. Refresh your wellness routine with ease, courtesy of collagen.
The Vital Proteins Collagen Water Blackberry Hibiscus:
This is my favorite flavor of any of the collagen waters. If you like blackberry or fruit drinks, this is a good one to try. The blackberry is mild, and it has a sweet taste to it.
The Vital Proteins Collagen Water Lemon Ginger:
Of all of the flavors, the lemon ginger has the most zest. If you like something with a little bit of zest or zing, this is your flavor.
The Vital Proteins Collagen Water Blueberry Mint:
Admittedly, I wasn’t sure what to think the first time I heard of the flavor. Blueberry+mint seems like an interesting and unique combination. After trying it, I can admit I’m a fan. I think it pairs well and it’s a sweet, refreshing flavor.
The Vital Proteins Collagen Water Strawberry Lemon:
This reminds me of the staple of most flavors. Who doesn’t love a good strawberry and lemon flavored what option? It tastes exactly like the both combined without being overpowering of either. I don’t enjoy strong lemon drinks.
I like each of the flavors for different reasons, and I would grab any of them. My favorite is the Vital Proteins Collagen Water Blackberry Hibiscus.
Thank you Vital Proteins for allowing me to try the new flavors.
Questions for you:
What do you have post workout?
Have you tried Vital Proteins before?
I haven’t tried Vital Proteins Collagen Water before but like that the sugar is only from real fruit juice. The Blackberry Hibiscus is the one that I would try first as it sounds best to me.
Yes, it is my favorite as well Paula. Let me know if you do try it!
Great post! Collagen is always part of my vitamin regimen. I haven’t tried it this way though. I’ve had it in teas and gummy bears in the past, but never like this. I’m definitely giving it a try!
I’ve wanted to make collagen gummies before! I’m so nervous to do so.
I need to find out if they sell Vital collagen water here in Australia. I’m a big fan of collagen products, especially post Spartans as I find it helps with my recovery. Definitely going to see if I can find it here.
I’ll ask around for you too Stephanie, I hope they are. Spartans are so tough, one of my closest friends does them.
Blueberry mint and strawberry melon sound like they are delicious.
They are D’ondra. I always a sucker for strawberry melon products.
We all need something like this from time to time. I’ve heard many athletes trying this. The flavor looks nice and refreshing.
The older I get, the more I’ve come to realize how important collagen is for my skin and for my frail bones. I believe I’d love most if not all of these flavors. What a great way to stay hydrated all year long.
Yes. Keeping bones and skin healthy is so important.
I have never tried collagen water, but I have tried collagen powder. I think I would like the Blueberry Mint flavour.
I like collagen powder a lot too, Lori. Let me know if you do try the Blueberry mint!
I have heard about many great benefits of collagen in Chronic illnesses. I want to give e it a try. I think I would love the lemon ginger one .
Let me know if you do!
I hadn’t heard about this before. I have been looking into collagen products because my anti-rejection meds have affected my hair. I might have to give these a try!
The ingredients look nice and healthy. I also love that there are many different flavors.
I appreciate all of the flavors too!
