I get it, you’re better than me because you like it and I don’t.

        I recently found a very mildly sweetened tea and I’ve been in love. Tall can and only 7 grams of sugar. I can drink them all day and I don’t feel like I’m going to enter into a diabetic coma like I do after one sip of Arizona tea.

        Problem is they aren’t cheap and they only give you free shipping on the first batch… Not sure I am willing to spend the money on getting them consistently which sucks. I need to find somewhere local and stock up.

            Yeah I remember those.

            I don’t know what people seem to only want entirely unsweetened or super diabetic sweetened. Why can’t anyone offer a slightly sweet drink.

            I’m telling you it’s a conspiracy by big sugar.

        Plus, they are amazing as mixers, so you can always make them alcoholic

      La Croix seems to be the best of the available off-the-shelf sparkling waters brands, at least where I live. Liquid Death, Bubbly, Aha, Spindrift, and Waterloo just don’t seem as good imo.

      Though Topo Chico is also bomb 👍

      I love sparkling water, and bonus that the office stocks them in the fridge. Biggest complaint is that they don’t have just plain, no flavor La Croix or lime either.

      My favorite sparkling water so far is Topo Chico. La Croix may be less expensive though.

        Topo Chico is god tier - above Perrier, San Peligrino, etc… It’s just carbonated as fuck. Don’t even need flavor.

    Brainwashed by popular sugar products, the human makes fun of healthier alternatives. Where’s my high fructose corn syrup, caffeine, and cancer causing agents?! /s

      just not liking the teasing of flavor is all. If I want flavor I will drink the sugary ones, otherwise I will just drink plain water. Having nothing is better than unsatisfying amount that makes you want more.

    The Lemoncello is a strong delicious flavor.

    The Cherry Blossom is NASTY, it tastes like tootsie rolls.

      Lacroix? Taste?

      Are you a super taster or something? I only ever taste cardboard with a fine mist of watered down fruit juice when I drink them.

      Bubbly’s are way better, or even Waterloos.

        Well, I don’t drink any sugary drinks ever, so that may be part of it. But the Lemoncello specifically has very much taste!

        Hi. It depends on how long you haven’t drank any sweet drinks like soda. LaCroix has a lot of flavor. But if you where to drink 2 mountain dews a day for 10 years straight you won’t taste anything but ass.

    If that’s the devils water I guess I’m a devil worshipper. I love sparkling water. La croix is very good however Spindrift is my favorite and love all their flavors.

    Maaaan. I kicked soda several years back and I like flavored water now lol. It’s getting a bit pricey now these days.

    There are a lot of categories of food and drink that I will never understand how anyone likes them. ‘Unsweetened and carbonated’ is reasonably high on the list for me - carbonation itself is bitter in my experience, and bitter by itself is unpleasant.

    Of course different strokes for different folks, I don’t think people who like it should stop, I just don’t get why they do.

    Hail Satan then, I’m a recovering alcoholic and millennial and I like drinking something that feels like a punishment.
