Take the next step towards enjoyable hydration. Get a keg set up to carbonate your own water. Costs about 10-25 cents to carbonate 5 gallons of water and you can add your own minerals to it to copy your favorite brand of sparkling water.

I stopped two years ago. With that said, I still crave that fizz at times, so I'll have a can of Sprite Zero Sugar once a month.

why not buy carbonated water then anyways i dont like the taste of it. is that your setup? Is it not extreme?

>> No.16676659

>>16676646
Yeah I set that up. It's about average for at home carbonation. You can buy smaller kegs and co2 bottles.

I bought everything at auction for cheap, so the whole set up probably cost me about 30-50 dollars. 5 gallons is around 25 750ml bottles of sparkling water. So roughly 30-40 dollars for 25 bottles of good sparkling mineral water.

I'll be saving money after 5-10 gallons of at home carbonated water. You can also add whatever flavoring you want to the water.

>>16676666
Yeah, it's super simple. Fill with water connect co2 tank at whatever pressure you like and wait a few days.

There are actually places around the world with springs that have naturally carbonated water. Soda springs Idaho has a bunch of pits where water comes from the ground carbonated. I'd love to visit them one day.

It really does well with pizza and fast food.
Those are the only things I drink soda with and I only eat them two or three times a month

I haven’t had soda or for the most part sweets in 3-4 years. Physically I feel a lot better.

Quit the fuck out of soda a handful of years back.
Replaced it with Perrier.
I honestly can’t even drink soda now. I tried a can of Mountain Dew recently and it felt like trying to drink melted skittles or something.

But one parts root beer to 3 parts plain carbonated water is pretty fucking tasty.

Great job, anon. Find Gerolsteiner if you can in the nice big glass bottles - it's a real treat.

I'll be honest anon it's something i'm trying to quit but having great difficulty. I drink about 3-4 cans a day. Am going to start cutting slowly down to 0 and drinking healthier alternatives.

The Perrier helped a lot. It “hit the spot” enough when I wanted something carbonated.
I ended up realizing that, at least for me, what I was craving was something cold/fizzy. Not necessarily sugary.
