Anyone else a fan? Would drink 2 or 3 bottles a day of the stuff, a top drink imo  ------------- "He drives two Ferraris; I think he's a very lucky lad to have 50 caps for Ireland," Eamonn Dunphy on Glenn Whelan |

Used to hate the stuff back when I was kid, but absolutely love it now. I don't drink much 7up/Fanta/Coke etc so it probably helps getting my daily intake of water whether still or sparking. San Pellegrino is qualty Volvic do a lovely sparkling water too, can't beat a flavoured water!------------- "He drives two Ferraris; I think he's a very lucky lad to have 50 caps for Ireland," Eamonn Dunphy on Glenn Whelan |

Love the stuff. Would mostly drink still but sparking every so often is amazingly refreshing. Awesome for hangover |

Hate the stuff. Nothing worse than when you're parched in a hotel room and you take a big swig from a water bottle and to your shock it's sparkling water. ------------- YBIG Quiz Champion 2016, 2017 & 2018. As You Were Three in a row |

Have got into it recently - Find it good for the hangover. Our new office at work has a tap that does still water as well as sparkling - a game changer !

having gotten sparlking water so often in Europe, I don't mind it now, but would always pick normal water first. What makes it sparking? And is it just the same as normal water? ------------- Romario 2016: And the ticket mafia gets caught! Well, four years ago I had already told the government. |

It’s carbonated water. Water that has had carbon dioxide applied under pressure to it. Wouldnt be too keen on it but have heard it’s great for a hangover alright |

It's quality for a hangover, not on the level of a bottle of Lucozade but definitely worth a bottle or two when on deaths door after a session.

An absolute sham of a beverage. No character, no depth. It doesn't have the history of non sparkling water. It's a modern day snake oil created by marketing suits in order to con the great unwashed out of their few bob. It's a monument to the worst excesses of this noxious consumer society we live in. There's nothing as deflating as opening a bottle of water when thirsty and hearing that release of gaseous fizz and releasing that you've got that muck instead of still water. ------------- El Puto Amo |

I agree with drogaddict, I'd take the aids and take them from phillyk if it was a choice between that and sparkling water mid game in the Ukrainian heat.

I’ve changed jobs recently and the company has sparkling water on tap. Used to hate the stuff but tried it a few weeks ago after being on the beers. Have to say it’s lovely for a hangover and now I drink it all day. If you haven’t tried it for years give it a go. ------------- |
