No to plain sparkling water but flavoured sparkling water is nice

Grateeggspectations · 25/08/2024 20:01

It’s delicious, but does aggravate the bladder.

Yea but not plain and alone!

With lime juice

Or with some orange juice

Or those flavoured sparkly water bottles - my fave is apple and raspberry from Tesco!

Yes

user1471462634 · 25/08/2024 20:03

Yes, love it cold. Decided to buy a soda stream instead of bottles. Always keep some by the bed at night if I'm thirsty. Only one in my house that will drink it though.

Icanflyhigh · 25/08/2024 20:03

It tastes like TV static. It's a no from me.

DarkForces · 25/08/2024 20:03

Yes

Mil3nnial · 25/08/2024 20:03

No not at all. I find it very unpleasant.

Ironorhoover · 25/08/2024 20:04

Only flavoured with lemon and lime.

Timeturnerplease · 25/08/2024 20:05

I drink about two litres of it a day. My dream is to be able to afford a sparkling water tap in my kitchen. Soda Stream does ok, but it’s such a faff.

PanettoneSoprano · 25/08/2024 20:06

Yes!
And recently discovered Dash, the lime one and the grapefruit one are lush!

EasternStandard · 25/08/2024 20:06

Yes love it over other soft drinks

mononymous · 25/08/2024 20:06

Buxton sparkling mineral water every day

Judellie · 25/08/2024 20:08

No. But I only really like tap water, tea or coffee anyway, no other drinks.

ArabellaFishwife · 25/08/2024 20:09

Hate the stuff. I really like fizzy drinks, but my go-to on a hot day and when I'm out is really really cold still water. I don't know why carbonating water turns me off when other carbonated drinks are unreasonably tasty, but there it is.

backslashruby · 25/08/2024 20:09

Yes, it's the only way I can drink water. Still water is smooth and sickly.

Silvers11 · 25/08/2024 20:09

Yes - love it

lollyPaloozah · 25/08/2024 20:11

No, I want to like it because I love fizzy drinks. But it just tastes horrible, I read somewhere once that someone said it tastes like static and it describes it perfectly for me!

Raininginparadise2 · 25/08/2024 20:12

Love it

Dweetfidilove · 25/08/2024 20:12

Love it!

HeySummerWhereAreYou · 25/08/2024 20:13

MrsMumster · 25/08/2024 19:45

No.

No. Awful stuff. Much rather have still mineral water!

Then again, I don't like fizzy drinks of any kind.

MewMew101 · 25/08/2024 20:14

No! It’s like drinking static

AyrshireTryer · 25/08/2024 20:14

Yes

MinervaMcGonagallsCat · 25/08/2024 20:14

It tastes like evil 👿

Moier · 25/08/2024 20:16
