I drink a ton of club soda and I think that's okay!

I switched from drinking rum and cokes to vodka club sodas with lime. I loved the club soda so much I have been drinking it a ton (without the vodka) with fresh lime. I will have several glasses per night rather than water because I'm a snob and I don't like the water that comes out of the fridge at home. Club soda is cheap and refreshing. It really just has some sodium but that's about it.

Is it an ok substitute for water? I still drink water when I'm other places or when I am at school at my apartment with my good water.

Thanks in advance!

    Let's see now. Club soda is fluid. Not all sugary? That's a plus. Not all full of caffeine? Definitely a plus. Now that sodium - depends how much and how sensitive your system is. It's what 75 mg. per cup? If you are drinking ten cups per day, that might get to be a bit much, particularly if you are already eating a lot of processed foods with a lot of sodium. Then again if you are working out a lot or spending a lot of time out in the heat, that sodium might be exactly what you need.

    If you find that you need to moderate your sodium intake, you can choose what your priorities are. You might wish to try seltzer water which is another form of carbonated water that has less sodium in it, or perhaps you will want to get a Soda Stream and make your own at home. Or perhaps you will get more enjoyment out of emphasizing fresh foods in your diet to moderate your sodium that way while still enjoying the club soda.

    Club soda, vodka and lime is my go to low calorie drink. Never tried it without the vodka though.
