Best Unflavored Bottled Fizzy Water?

[Michael Poche]

Two recent fizzy water purchases—a generic club soda and Mountain Valley—were woefully low on actual FIZZ. Any opinions/experiences? I know home carbonated can be great, but that’s not an option for me at present.

I like Topo Chico, or Perrier.

FIZZY WATER WHAT TORTURE!

Sodastream.

Are you drinking it straight or mixing? Ice or no ice? I agree that perrier is quit fizzy. I know you said not flavored, but you might try diet tonic water with some lime juice and lots of ice. tonic water is always really fizzy to me.

Like I said, home made is not an option right now.

Perrier, I buy it by the case. I have for years. C'est bon!

I have to agree the generic stuff is not as fizzy. Perrier is. But it is pricey.

Topo Chico is my Fave, but I also like San Pellegrino and Perrier - in that order. It's tap water with carbonation - the mineral content of each is what makes them taste unique from one another.

San Pel or Perrier then. Perrier mixes better.

San Pellegrino for me.I get cases at Costco.

I like San Pellegrino and Perrier for the high-end stuff but I'm actually fine with a vintage Seltzer as it's called that's a brand
I like almost anything except I do not care for real club soda like Canada Dry
I love lemon lime but I also like unflavored

Topo is the fizziest - a 12 oz bottle chilled to right below freezing is the best.

Kirkland mineral water

There’s just something about fizzy water that isn’t quenching to me

Needs to flow, more so than just bubbles bombarding my gullet

Will it not freeze?

Because of The fizziness?

Gerolsteiner, by a mile.

Gerolsteiner Brunnen GmbH & Co. KG (Gerolsteiner) is a leading German mineral water firm with its seat in Gerolstein in the Eifel mountains. The firm is well known for its Gerolsteiner Sprudel brand, a bottled, naturally carbonated mineral water. This water, in addition to hydrogen and oxygen (H2O) and carbon (in the carbon dioxide (CO2) carbonation), contains the following chemical elements in, at least, the amounts of 100 or more micrograms per liter: bromine, calcium, chlorine, fluorine, lithium, magnesium, manganese, nitrogen, potassium, silicon, sodium, strontium, and sulfur.

I particularly like the manganese: spicy! /s
