No, tastes like Alka Seltser 🤮

Yes. If I'm paying for bottled water much rather have sparkling. Saying that I much prefer tap water.

Yes! Love a lime & soda. I always have loads in the fridge.

Soda water isn't sparkling water though

God that man is such a nob!

redtrain123 · 25/08/2024 20:23

No, hate it. Reminds me of Andrew liver salts.

For some reason he often prattles on about sparkling water!

No, hate it.

theduchessofspork · 25/08/2024 20:27

Love it

Didn’t used to but now somewhat addicted to the sparkle - is it the salt??

ThatPeachSnake · 25/08/2024 20:29

Yes

poppym12 · 25/08/2024 20:29

Yes. All day, every day. Don't drink anything else apart from the odd coffee here and there.

Pineappleprep · 25/08/2024 20:31

No, it tastes like static

Soda water isn't sparkling water though

It pretty much is? Soda’s just got a bit of added bicarbonate to hold its bubbles when you lob whisky in, so it’s just a bubble level up

RabbitsRock · 25/08/2024 20:31

I used to drink Perrier water when I was on an elimination diet to try & find out my allergies but not really a fan of sparkling water in general.

Love it but it has eroded all the enamel off my teeth 😢

I thought that was a MYTH ?!

Nearlyspring23 · 25/08/2024 20:34

Only with ribena!

Only with ribena!

Sparkling ribena with lots of ice is delightful on a hot day.

LuminousCrystalFox · 25/08/2024 20:39

I didn’t use to but I’ve become a convert, I’ve only ever had San Pellegrino though. No idea if they taste wildly different brand to brand?

invisiblecat · 25/08/2024 20:39

No. Fizzy water gives me indigestion.
