A better bottled water alternative?

As much as I try to avoid it, sometimes I do buy PET bottles of water when I'm out and about. I do try and reuse them when practical - I've become extremely guilt-ridden when it comes to single use plastics.


I was in 7-11 the other day though, and was pleasantly surprised to find a new offering on the shelves...

This new brand, Just Water, is the brainchild of Jaden Smith - the son of Will Smith. It launched in Japan only recently from what I've researched, and the uniqueness of their product comes from the packaging. The bottle itself is predominantly made of paper, with the cap made from sugarcane. The plastic components in the packaging are referred to as "plant-based plastics", which I'd have to research more about to understand. Overall though, it sounds like a potential step in the right direction.
