I am getting tired of Topo Chico’s antics. What are your alternatives that you enjoy?

Polar Seltzer
I remember reading somewhere posted a while back on a social media aggregated site where a bunch of professional food taste testers unanimously agreed Polar was the best.
This is a crazy recommendation but I think Canada dry plain seltzer is basically as good as topo Chico. I got some at a gas station the other day cause I was dying of thirst and it was as good as topo Chico my wife thought so too.
I’ve tried a bunch but found almost all the bottled fizz I can buy to be quite bitter. I own one of those carbon sifon things now. Probably better known as sodastream in the Americas
I drink pamplemousse La Croix. I just really enjoy it, way more than any other flavor or brand.
My tapwater is great. And if I want it fizzy I have a machine to mix it with CO2.
Cold tapwater + sodastream. You can filter your tapwater if needed in your area.
Replace Sodastream with a company that has less genocidal relations.
Like ?
DrinkMate are the main alternative.
What happened with Topo Chico? They’ve always been my go-to soda water.
Not sure what OP’s reasonings are, but the brand is owned by Coca-Cola, which has ties with Israel and operates a bottling factory in the occupied West Bank.
According to Consumer Reports, Topo Chico consistently tested the highest for PFAS among carbonated waters. But they also said almost all store-bought carbonated waters tested positive for PFAS.
Liquid death
Loka and Ramlösa are very nice, I especially like Ramlösa Svarta Vinbär!
Endast andra land har likasom vatten är tjeck. Men det har 4g socker i deras vatten och DWM har aven druvor smak. Jättegott.
For all you sodastream people - I want you to know you are supporting genocide.

The company is based in Israel and makes a lot of their products there. That being said, they’re owned by PepsiCo, an American company.
Oh, I had no idea. Our sodastream was a gift, but now that I know I’ll go looking for alternatives.
All that buying another soda maker does is create more waste. If you don’t want to support Sodastream, then buy some of the high-quality accessories from 3rd parties.
Personally a San Pellegrino person but significant others hate small bubbles, Saratoga Springs seems to be the best compromise in the small vs big bubble debate.
