Let's have a carbonated spring water thread, anons. In b4 >why don't you just drink tap water, faggot?

Why drink carbonated mineral water? The main reason is that it's delicious and comes from the Earth. The naturally occuring carbonation is extremely refreshing when you open an ice cold bottle of water. It's also rather healthy for you as it's generally high in minerals. The taste also varies due to the mineral content, with different waters having different tastes and mineral content, so you can always switch things up. It's also just really classy.

What's your favourite carbonated mineral water, /ck/? Only real carbonated waters, please. Soda Streaming your municipal tap water doesn't count.

Pic related by the way. Gerolsteiner from the Eifel Mountains in Germany is my favourite. Borjomi is my runner up and it comes from the Borjomi Gorge in the Lesser Caucasus Mountains in the beautiful country of Georgia.

Based. Gerolsteiner is the best. I do 5 gal of my well water carbonated fairly often. I'd like to get a RO system to try and clone gerolsteiner. Imagine a 5 or 10 gal keg of gerolsteiner. Good lord I would be hydrated.

It's still garbage. It isn't really about the fact it's a Nestlé product, it's the production itself.

>The spring from which Perrier water is sourced is naturally carbonated, but the water and natural carbon dioxide gas are obtained independently. The water is then purified, and during bottling, the carbon dioxide gas is re-added so that the level of carbonation in bottled Perrier matches that of the Vergèze spring.

>In 1990, Perrier removed the "naturally sparkling" claim from its bottles under pressure from the United States Food and Drug Administration.

>Since at least 2019, Perrier water is no longer "reinforced with gas from the source" but "with the addition of carbon dioxide". According to the company, this change allows it to considerably reduce its total water consumption and reduce its ecological impact.

See? The Aquafina of carbonated mineral water. I'd at least choose S.Pellegrino over Perrier. I only get Perrier when I want a drink and wander into a convenience store, since that's usually what they stock. While Nestlé owns S.Pellegrino as well, they don't do any sort of weird manual re-carbonation of the water like they do with Perrier. But really there are lots of other nice waters. Hit up your local Eurotrash grocery stores and you should find good selections.

So what? Benzene is everywhere. Again, why are you seething so hard about fucking mineral water? And why do you think more minerals make a mineral water better? It's all about balance. Perriers quality is it's subtility. If you want more minerality or harder bubbles, there are others. Thinking that harder bubbles or more minerality makes a better mineral water is like thinking the hot sauce with highest scoville is the best, in other words: plain retardation.

I have a 5 gallon keg of a gerolsteiner clone on right now and it's been a delight. It's almost gone unfortunately, but it's for sure going to be in my main rotation. This was my first keg of this stuff. It's also the most heavily mineralized soda I have made. So refreshing. I have the recipe somewhere if you waterfags are interested
