Boy these kind of shots are hard to get. Sadly only one of the water droplets are in focus. What you might try is focus in on one droplet and then leave your shutter half way down so the camera thinks its still focusing on that one spot and then shoot.
Or crop it down so much as this one in focus droplet is the main subject.

I love the DOF here. Have you tried comapring this shot with another more tightly cropped on the drop? Maybe a portrait crop with the drop on an upper 1/3ish line?
