Does Aldi Belle Vie Sparkling Water Taste the Same as LaCroix?

Aldi Belle Vie

At my local store this flavored sparkling water comes in Lemon, Lime and Grapefruit flavors. It cost $1.99 for an 8 pack. It contains no sugar or sodium and just a hit of natural flavor. The ingredients listed are simply carbonated water and natural flavors.

Cost per can: $0.24

LaCroix

LaCroix is the drink that everyone is most familiar with and it comes in a wide variety of flavors, including the same three that Aldi sells. This regularly sells for $3.99 for an 8 pack and you can typically find sales with it costing $2.99.

Cost per can: $0.37 – $0.50

Taste

For me, I cannot tell a difference in taste. This is a no-brainer, buy the Aldi brand if you like LaCroix and you will not be disappointed. Only buy LaCroix if you want more flavor options.

Summary

If you’re looking for flavors other than lime, lemon or grapefruit look elsewhere but if any of those are your favorite you’d only be paying for the name by going with LaCroix!
