CaptainSarcastic posted:I can't remember if I posted in this thread when it was last alive, but I will say that Spindrift makes the best seltzers out there, in large part because they use actual fruit juice instead of "essences" for the flavoring. They have a new blood orange tangerine flavor and I can't find it anywhere. Grapefruit is quite tasty though.

They made one or two really good cranberry flavors, but I haven't seen them in a while. Their plain lime is also good. The stores here stopped carrying cucumber a year or more ago so I was paying through the nose to have it delivered straight from Spindrift, and then the fuckers discontinued it. I'm still angry at them for that.

My local Safeway has cut back on their low-end generic house brand, in favor of their high-end generic house brand, Soleil. Prices have also increased dramatically. It's not gas prices hitting my household hard, it's bubbly water prices.

lychee seltzer sounds like it could be really good, I'll have to keep an eye out for it. I mostly drink Wegmans brand lemon-lime because it's cheap and good, they have a ton of flavors I haven't tried but I don't think lychee is one.

Tried the Sanzo Lychee again, and it's like a more refreshing, not-as-harsh Spindrift Raspberry Lime. Also picked up some Aura Bora, which is an herbal seltzer water. They have four non-coconut flavors (I loving hate coconut): Cactus Rose, Lavender Cucumber, Basil Strawberry, and Peppermint Watermelon. With the exception of the Cactus Rose, they all taste substantially more of the herb than the fruit, and I only except Cactus Rose because I don't know what cactus tastes like (it is very floral, though). All are pretty good just to change things up, but nothing I'd do as a daily drink.

Just saw this thread, is there an acceptance here that seltzer is the best possible alternative to the "in a perfect world" situation of drinking all day while doing your difficult "life of the mind" work? I consume toms of lecroix/etc because my brain wants to drink interesting liquid 16 hours a day, which used to be soda as a kid, and would now be wheat/light beer if society was pro-alcoholic I'm saying that SV startups chug seltzer because they feel low-class and nebulously guilty drinking beer all day (the best situation), and lie/cope with seltzer

This one especially is legit, tastes just like a lawnmower beer.

I've noticed Spindrift aggressively discounted in Safeway lately, and showing up in more grocery stores in general. It seems like they are expanding their market share, which I see as a good thing. Although I'm still mad about them discontinuing cucumber as a flavor.

I bought a sixer of this Origin seltzer that’s “sparkling” ie lightly carbonated and it’s very refreshing. A real chugger if you will.

Brolander posted:vintage has great bubblefeel. honestly that's the most important thing. la croix has lovely little bubbles i refuse to drink it came here to post this. the best seltzer is the kind that hurts you good when you drink it. i can't find vintage since moving from Pennsylvania, so I settle for Soleil here in california, which is a good alternative but not quite on vintage's level

Carbonic acid, not carbolic; it's produced as a result of the introduction of carbon dioxide to the water. It is indeed pretty bad for your teeth, which means that, no, it's not a good idea to be drinking a bunch of carbonated water every day.

This is from the American Dental Association: quote:https://www.mouthhealthy.org/en/nutrition/food-tips/the-truth-about-sparkling-water-and-your-teeth They do say that it's possible citrus flavored ones are worse due to their higher acid levels but it doesn't sound like that was put to the test.

Found a twelve pack of Waterloo Spiced Apple on sale at Whole Foods. Tastes kinda nutmeg-y. It's not bad, though I don't know if I'd buy it again. I also got a fancy carbonator from a former co-worker I have yet to try out (an Aarke Carbonator 3). He swears by it, we'll see if it's an improvement over the SodaStream.

Dunno when it hit, but the LaCroix Beach Plum legit tastes like a Hawaiian Punch-flavored sparkling water. 5/7, would highly recommend.

Trader Joe's Blueberry Lemonade is thoroughly "meh." Definitely prefer the LaCroix lemon to it. Not terrible, but not worth going out of your way for.
