    @Mik said in Sodastream:

    Why carbonated water? Any particular reason other than personal preference?

    It's like speakers pianos bicycle parts - personal preference. I find it more refreshing than flat water.

    I like the bubbly.

    @George-K We’re now loving Fresca (the old zero sugar, grapefruit citrus soda drink from when we were kids).

    And putting it in Pomelo cocktails, mixing with tequila, or with gin and lime juice, or with gin and Campari as a Negroni variant.

      Fresca is good. I don't buy it often but did go through a phase a few years ago where it was my go-to. Lately I really enjoy Spindrift, especially the pineapple...very refreshing in the summer.

      That being said, my dentist told me last time that carbonated water drinks like LaCroix, Spindrift, etc.... are not "the same as water" for your teeth, and to avoid drinking them too much.

        @89th the CO2 In those drinks dissolved in water making it acidic. That’s why The dentist said that.

        The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

            Just placed my first order.

            Looks like 2 bottles is about $7 cheaper than SodaSense. Program looks exactly the same - send in two empties, get two refills back. Repeat as necessary.

                I never understood the appeal of bottled unflavored, flat water. Other than Penn and Teller, has anyone done a blind taste-test of bottled waters?

                    @George-K I’ve been to restaurants with a bottled water menu. Go figure.

                      I love cold soda water. I drink almost no alcohol anymore (migraine issues, and it is sometimes a trigger) so my favorite beverages a dinner are either soda water or NA beer.
