bald1Fan of flavored sparking water? What's your favorite brand/flavor?
For me its LaCroix in Peach-Pear, Orange, and Cerise Limon. And Perrier Watermelon.

Only sugared carbonated stuff I drink is Fever Tree Indian Tonic for gin & tonics, Fever-Tree Elderflower Tonic for vodka tonics, and Fever Tree Premium Ginger Beer for Moscow Mules.

Balzé HalzéI'm not a fan at all of the real fruity la croix flavors. I only like lemon or lime. In actuality, I prefer just plain ol' sparkling water, either Perrier or S.Pellegrino.

UnishotWifey bought some various flavored Zevia carbonated sugar-free drinks. The vanilla cream soda, root beer, black cherry, and lemon-lime are pretty good. Better yet, sugar free and calorie free.

The only one I drink is Cock N' Bull Ginger Beer for Kentucky Mules.

BigSwedeThe wife likes plain Perrier or Pellegrino, less carbonation. I just buy the packs of Deer Park at Costco. Several flavors, don't care.

PerceptionYou're in luck, they have new flavors coming out any time now!

"Odd," said Arthur, "I thought you said it was a democracy."
"I did," said Ford, "it is."
"So," said Arthur, hoping he wasn't sounding ridiculously obtuse, "why don't the people get rid of the lizards?"
"It honestly doesn't occur to them. They've all got the vote, so they all pretty much assume that the government they've voted in more or less approximates the government they want."
"You mean they actually vote for the lizards."
"Oh yes," said Ford with a shrug, "of course."
"But," said Arthur, going for the big one again, "why?"
"Because if they didn't vote for a lizard, then the wrong lizard might get in." June 27, 2018, 01:16 PM
newmexicanLemon lacroix or Perrier. Pretty boring.

vinnybassLaCroix - Lime, Lemon, Orange, & Grapefruit. The straight flavors only. Those other mixed concoctions don't do it for me.

zoom6zoomBubly orange is pretty good. Inexpensive and a lot more flavor than some of the other brands.

SigSentryJust put down a New York Seltzer. Lacroix keeps me from going through a case of zevia.

PASigAldi has some good ones like a Kiwi/Strawberry
I make my own in a SodaStream and a good squeeze of lime or a small shot of this stuff is perfect:

bald1I haven't had a New York Seltzer in eons. Might have to look around to see if anyone in these parts carries the stuff.

EponymKroger Seltzer Water, unflavored. Rarely, I splurge on Pellegrino.
I call it "fizzy water"; no sugar/calories, no caffeine, no artificial colors; just a nice effervescence on the palate.

oddballI used to drink Crystal Geiser from Costco, then switched to La Croix several years ago. Now we buy the sleltzer water from Krogers and we like it better. Lemon Lime and Raspberry are my favorites, better than LaCroix IMO. And cheaper too...

CopefreeI drink a shit load of these things.
I mainly buy the Lemon flavored seltzer water that is Kroger branded from Fred Meyer (off-label brand).
It's the same shit as LaCroix -- Carbonated water with a little natural flavor (no sugar, no nothing).
I buy LaCroix sometimes, too. I have some on hand right now. I also like the 'Bubly' brand sometimes too -- this is Pepsi's shot at getting in the game.
I drink like 10 cans of this type water every day. I love it.
