oh man, thought NYT gave you a couple freebie articles, my bad!

2021-09-17 18:47:37 +0000 UTCspindrift is a bit too juicy for me - I'm personally skeptical of things that try to break down "natural" vs "unnatural" flavors when ultimately they're all chemicals, whether they're fabricated or not. a fabricated or processed chemical doesn't necessarily make it bad. (but I can't read the article since it's NYT and I don't subscribe. ~brandon)

2021-09-17 18:02:32 +0000 UTCLittle late to the convo on this one, but I think the best sparkling water is Spindrift. Not the most adventurous flavors but it's the only sparkling water I've seen that doesn't have "Natural Flavors". With Spindrift its just carbonated water and fruit juice, simple ingredients your body knows how to process. Be skeptical of "Natural Flavors" when you see it listed as an ingredient: https://www.nytimes.com/2019/02/01/well/eat/are-natural-flavors-really-natural.html
