Sparkling Water - Who drinks it?

I bought some La Croix - Orange, and I had really high hopes. I guess I've never tried sparkling water before, but I really hate it. It tastes awful to me. Is it something I should stick with, and it will grow on me?
I really want to like it!

    It cures cancer, heart disease, and nose warts on penguins.

    Definitely stick with it.

    I gave up soda for flavored seltzers years ago (never tried La Croix though). It did take some getting used to, but now I really can't stand soda, it's too sweet! Love my seltzer :smile:

    Don't eat or drink things that taste awful to you. There are way too many other options for your hydration needs for you to have to force yourself to drink something you don't like.

    I do not many of them, but I love vanilla ones. The aftertaste reminds me of cream soda.

    I bought a SodaStream and drink nothing but sparkling water. I only ever add fresh lemon or fruit slices or cucumber and mint to flavor it. So tasty! And much cheaper than bottled, not to mention easier on our planet.

    Ahaha really!? Wow.

    Never liked sparkling water but usually I don't like plain water in general. Might try it now though, mixed with sugar-free squash.

    I love fizzy water. I've never been much of a pop/soda/juice drinker, but I do like sparkling water with a citrus twist, muddled fruit, a splash of fruit juice or if my tummy is upset, a mix of fresh lemon juice, grated fresh ginger and a bit of honey. It's like DIY ginger beer. This is great with fresh mint too. When I drink mixed cocktails, sparkling water and citrus is my go to mix usually.

    I don't like the flavored ones, but I mix plain seltzer with a little fruit juice, a lemon or lime twist, sometimes a little cucumber. Lately I've been drinking it plain as well (I don't mind filtered tap water, but sometimes it's nice to have the carbonation.) If you don't like it, don't drink it. Try something else (nonsparkling water, unsweetened tea or herbal "tea," etc.)
