lol, is this the soda subreddit or the sparkling water fan club? Where's the love for the artificial colors and caffeine jitters? You guys know liquid doesn't need to be clear to be enjoyed, right?
I'm all about that splash of juice life! Pomegranate juice has been my go-to - antioxidants and flavor, yes please. Also, don't forget to try cold brewed tea in your sparkling water for a subtle flavor boost without the sweetener!
Infusing fruit? Might as well eat the fruit and drink plain water. If you're cutting out sugar, commit to it. Or, just drink soda less often. No need to pretend sparkling water will ever replace a good ol' cola.
Not sure about stevia, tastes weird to me. Does anyone else get that bitter aftertaste? Anyone got other sweetener suggestions that don't make it taste off?
Honestly, switching to infused sparkling water helped me lose weight and feel better. You gotta get used to less sweetness though, but it's worth it. Huge fan of this approach!
Natural flavors are fine & all, but sometimes you want that classic soda taste. Zero-cal alternatives that still taste like the real thing? Now that's the secret sauce. Drop the names if you got 'em!
I appreciate the creativity, but remember to watch out for the natural sugars in juice. It's easy to overdo it thinking it's all healthy. Measuring is key - aim for about an ounce of juice per serving to keep the calories low.
Yo, great tips! I've done the fruit infusion and it's 👌, like legit good. Ever tried herbs? A lil' mint or basil levels things up. Not too much or it'll taste like salad water tho lol
