I get it, you’re better than me because you like it and I don’t.

Brainwashed by popular sugar products, the human makes fun of healthier alternatives. Where’s my high fructose corn syrup, caffeine, and cancer causing agents?! /s
just not liking the teasing of flavor is all. If I want flavor I will drink the sugary ones, otherwise I will just drink plain water. Having nothing is better than unsatisfying amount that makes you want more.

If that’s the devils water I guess I’m a devil worshipper. I love sparkling water. La croix is very good however Spindrift is my favorite and love all their flavors.
Hello fellow spindrift enjoyer, it’s good to know that there’s others like me. Honestly I just love the lemon flavor (no hate on other ones though).
Spindrift orange mango is so nice… mmmm
Maaaan. I kicked soda several years back and I like flavored water now lol. It’s getting a bit pricey now these days.
Get a soda maker and add a tiny amount of syrup or fruit juice
Hey … that’s not a bad idea.
The Lemoncello is a strong delicious flavor.
The Cherry Blossom is NASTY, it tastes like tootsie rolls.
Lacroix? Taste?
Are you a super taster or something? I only ever taste cardboard with a fine mist of watered down fruit juice when I drink them.
Bubbly’s are way better, or even Waterloos.
I was in the ‘no taste’ crowd until I cut soda out of my diet and just cut way back on sugar in general. These are a decent substitute and they have plenty of flavor.
When you’re use to the 40-50 grams of sugar in a soda it’s hard to compete. Kinda like smokers actually being able to smell and taste stuff after they quit.
Edit: typo
Bubly and Waterloo also have no sugar, and yet still taste like actual fruit flavors.
Well, I don’t drink any sugary drinks ever, so that may be part of it. But the Lemoncello specifically has very much taste!
Hi. It depends on how long you haven’t drank any sweet drinks like soda. LaCroix has a lot of flavor. But if you where to drink 2 mountain dews a day for 10 years straight you won’t taste anything but ass.
I’ll take Pellegrino. But the devil didn’t make carbonated water, he made Canada Geese,
There are a lot of categories of food and drink that I will never understand how anyone likes them. ‘Unsweetened and carbonated’ is reasonably high on the list for me - carbonation itself is bitter in my experience, and bitter by itself is unpleasant.
Of course different strokes for different folks, I don’t think people who like it should stop, I just don’t get why they do.
I don’t understand why people drink water uncarbonated. I got mytself a soda maker, though as the water is just fine here. I usually only add a drop of lemon juice.
I don’t get people binging on liquid sugar drinks. Only a hint of syrup gives my bubbly water the idea of sweetness.
I wouldn’t buy this crap though, I’d happily drink it for free.
Home-brewer here. I’ve used a C02 canister and keg to carbonate my beer for a while, since it’s simpler and more consistent than trying to add sugar to a bottle before capping it.
I also bought a $1 adapter that lets me connect my CO2 to a bottle and carbonate a few liters of water with a few moments of shaking. Add a few tiny bottles of flavoring and I can make a 12-pack of seltzer in about 30 seconds with any flavors I have on hand. Pear is my current favorite, but I also have cherry, vanilla, orange and others, and they can be mixed. My kiddos love the ‘dreamsicle’ that is a few drops of vanilla + orange. I rarely add sugar, unless I’m aiming for a more ‘soda’ vibe.
The CO2 canister and gas regulator assembly was probably $70-ish bucks around 10 years ago. Refilling the canister is $20 and I do it around quarterly, while making 5-10 liters of seltzer a week. I have a homebrew store nearby, but I’m pretty sure that I could find a food-grade CO2 provider too, since any bar needs one.
I have friends who use SodaStream, but their gas canisters are terrible for pricing when you can do it yourself.
I used seltzer to kick a soda habit. I swapped sugary sodas like Mountain Dew for a non-sugar fizzy drink. I just couldn’t go for flat water and needed the bubbles. LaCroix and its cousins were a step in the right direction and having the ability to make my own on-demand was perfect.
Dude I love that shit. Especially citrusy flavors. But everyone’s tastes are different.
Don’t buy and drink “La Croix” in France unless you want to drink bleach.
Hail Satan then, I’m a recovering alcoholic and millennial and I like drinking something that feels like a punishment.
I’ve heard Americans pronounce it La cRoy and I refuse to accept that
Apparently that exact pronunciation is on their website.
It’s American so it’s not surprising they say the name wrong
Like Guy Fieri
So you’re saying it should actually be pronounced “La Croiks”?
The way it’s spelt
La cwa? La craw? Somewhere between those two
La Cr(rrr added rolling r for bonus)wa
yeah but the alternative is to use the french pronunciation which is also fucking stupid
Is that not how you read it in your head?
Thank you Satan, La Croix are amazing
My favorite sparkling water so far is Topo Chico. La Croix may be less expensive though.
Topo Chico is god tier - above Perrier, San Peligrino, etc… It’s just carbonated as fuck. Don’t even need flavor.
Right? What options do we have that aren’t alcoholic or sickeningly sweet?
Water? I vote water.
I smash water. Drink a minimum half gallon a day. I want something different from time to time.
Sir please stop fucking our water supply, you are turning it white
Water?
You mean like in the toilet?
Who keeps putting toilet fluid in my glass?
Kombucha.
Plus, they are amazing as mixers, so you can always make them alcoholic
La Croix seems to be the best of the available off-the-shelf sparkling waters brands, at least where I live. Liquid Death, Bubbly, Aha, Spindrift, and Waterloo just don’t seem as good imo.
Though Topo Chico is also bomb 👍
Man, Waterloo has some good flavors though!
Liquid Death is trash. It tastes like the can. I like Bubly and the Target brand though. Bubly orange cream is bomb.
Their flavored ones and teas are pretty good.
Where I live, for unflavored, it’s Polar > La Croix >>>>> anything else.
I personally prefer the Kirkland signature brand to La Croix. But that just be me.
Maybe literally. I think their soda has the most PFAS of all of them. Coca-cola!
I agree… I award you +3 points
I love sparkling water, and bonus that the office stocks them in the fridge. Biggest complaint is that they don’t have just plain, no flavor La Croix or lime either.
Bonus religious connotation
croissant and la Croix: kriss kross?
It’s not an issue though since it’s fr*nch.
Fun fact: Vampires can say God in fr*nch without issues, because it’s such a godless language
Mon Dieu!
Hon hon hon!
Context? Does it taste bad or?
It taste like drinking carbonated water while someone whispers the flavor three rooms over 😅
🤣🤣🤣
My favorite flavor is hint of hint of lime.
To me I thought the same for a long time, until I realized things like soda had completely nuked my taste buds. After cutting out soda and other insanely high in sugar things a lot more started tasting better, and la croix now has a ton of flavor.
I’m sure that’s probably true for many people, but also some people just don’t vibe with seltzers. I quit drinking everything but water and black coffee a few years back due to kidney stones and I still can’t stand lightly flavored seltzers.
It’s aftertaste as a flavor.
This is the best description I’ve read lol.
Ahhh I see 🤣
I’m guessing they just don’t care for the cool, refreshing taste of sparkling water
No, I just prefer to taste a flavor rather than just reading it on the label 🤣
If you don’t drink sugary drinks on the regular, they have plenty of flavor
They aren’t actually flavored at all, they’re just scented. If you plug your nose you can’t taste them
Plug your nose and most things taste bland lol, and I’m pretty sure they have flavor to them. Regardless, what difference would it make if the effect is the same?
If you have a weak sense of smell then you can’t taste them at all. I can taste most things fine though (la croix excluded) without them tasting bland. Smell definitely adds to flavoring but it’s not like it’s the only thing responsible for how you taste food/drinks.
No. Some people just can’t handle subtlety.
It tastes like licking a crt screen that is showing the scrambled image of a grapefruit.
So, it’s great when the office stocks it for free.
I don’t feel as strongly about la croix, but if I have a choice I’m getting polar water instead. If you’re looking for flavored water, it’s the best imho.
Polar Vanilla is the best bubbly water I’ve found but I can’t get it anymore!
I’ve never heard of or seen that before. Thank you for passing along your white whale lol. Now I need it too. Tbh, all their flavors are pretty good if you haven’t tried the others, I’d suggest giving them a shot. My local grocery store (it’s very local so not naming it so I don’t dox myself) has a very good alternative store brand. I like berry flavors, and their in house brand is just as good as polar if not better. Worth trying your local store brand just in case you get lucky and find a new favorite!
Hail Satan, my favorite pops
I thought this was going to go this way: https://youtu.be/O-RiJktDeXo
