I quit drinking beer a year and a half or so ago and drink those lightly flavored sparkling waters.
Yep. Had to quit beer for a while. Tried the NA stuff and it just isn’t good. Started popping a LaCroix (or whatever dafugg they’re called) instead.
Much better.
Got a Soda Stream machine a few years back. Carbonate my own water from my well, add a squeeze of lemon, lime, grapefruit, tart cherry juice, etc and make my own expensive "seltzers". I love the dang thing. Only real sodas I drink nowadays seem to be the Jarritos down at the Rubio's taco shop.
My wife bought me one of those a few Christmas's ago. It's still in a closet.
Ed, I'm sure you could find some recipes online for seltzer mixed drinks that could be tasty.
Of course, if you're a neat whiskey person, no need for a shot of fizzy water, homemade or otherwise.
Maybe one of the boys could use it?
