Mela Water

A fast-growing watermelon water brand based out of Southern California. We simply source watermelons from the world's most exotic locations, extract just the juicy red cores, and put them in a can. We guarantee you've never had anything like it. Pure watermelon juice, with no added sugar. Sweet, healthy, and hydrating.
