Every Day with Rachael Ray gave Ayala's Herbal Water Cinnamon Orange Peel the top honor in the flavored water category during a taste test. The magazine panelists tasted 80 flavored waters, and picked just five "that made a splash with the kids and their parents".

According to Every Day with Rachael Ray's August edition, Ayala's "Cinnamon and orange extracts give this grown-up pick a pleasant, spicy-floral twist - without adding calories."  One taster is quoted in the review saying: "Refreshing! Tastes like fresh orange slices and cinnamon sticks."
