About Stream:

Stream™ is an evolution in lifestyle healthy drinks.

We deliver what others can't: high quality, genuinely delicious and scientifically nutritious drinks that harness the power of natural plant extracts, vitamins and nutritional additives.

A fresh dose of vitamins, plant nutrients and nutraceuticals are delivered into spring water, once the cap is activated by consumer. This ensures there is no deterioration in potency.

Stream™ is sugar free, preservative free and very low in calories.
