slo’s FRIDAY poll - Bubly Sparkling Water

[skittles67]

I tried one - it was the blackberry one. I did not like it at all! So I've never tried any other flavors or brands.

I don’t drink any of those type of drinks but my husband drinks all of them - lol.

I voted other. I tried it once and thought it was disgusting. I drink plain old tap water.

NOPE. I always say, "LaCroix lacks joy". not refreshing, not tasty, why bother? Maybe as a mixer for alcohol? Not my thing - I am out.

I drink Ice or whatever it is to have something on occasion with flavor that doesn't seem to be as bad as pop (soda or whatever you would call it in your area.) Aldis has Frost which is pretty much the same thing.

I bought a case of Bubly because it is so similar looking to the stuff I get and thought it was but was in a smaller quantity can. I dumped it all, it was gross. Not at all what I expected because I did think it was the same. I don't like the lightly flavored stuff that just barely tastes slightly more than water. I drink mostly water and a lot of it.

Ice is artificially sweetened; Bubly is not. Maybe that's what threw you? It does not taste like a regular soft-drink because it's completely unsweetened.

La Croix is probably my least favorite of the flavored sparkling water brands.
I like Waterloo the best, and Target's brand Good&Gather is decent also.
My favorites are Waterloo Coconut and Watermelon, and G&G Cucumber Mint and Pineapple Coconut, or just plain club soda with lemon or lime wedges.

I love it! It has really helped me cut back on alcohol (Dry January!) I buy the Aldi brand and I love tangerine. When it’s not Dry January I like it with Deep Eddy lemon vodka.

I drink a lot of it. Of what was listed I chose grapefruit.

I really like the LaCroix Limoncello, I also like the LaCroix Razz-cranberry. I also like LaCroix Cafea Exotica. I also get the passionfruit, lemon, lime and grapefruit from Aldi. I also like plain sparkling water for that matter.

I also picked up some White Claw Tangerine today

I am not a fan of any sparkling waters (but my kids like them. I know grapefruit and lime are favorites, but I think they'll drink any.)

When I was young, my mother's cure-all for anything that ailed you was Alka-Seltzer. It made me throw up practically every time (and sometimes I did feel better after, but I still hated it.) All sparkling waters, regardless of flavor, remind me of Alka-Seltzer. I think I'm scarred for life. ;-)

Ditto to the sparkling water tasting like alka-seltzer and to my mother thinking it was a cure-all and to it making me vomit when I drank it. Whenever I am feeling nauseous and want to throw up thinking it will make me feel better I imagine injesting Alka-seltzer and it hurries things along.

Do not like any sparkling water. My DS loves Bubly and asked me to try it...blech.
