My husband and I used to get gingerale or Ale 8 (definately a Kentucky drink) but now we been getting into just an off brand of sparkling water/club soda and adding juice (no sugar added of course) I like adding cranberry and fresh lime or grape juice. My husband likes cranberry rasberry, it’s delicious.

I’m also a carbination lover! I realized that soda was probably not great for my teeth or weight a few months ago. Well, I already knew it was bad for me, but I finally decided to do something about it! I cut out soda completely about 2 months ago. It was hard at first, but once I got over that initial hurdle, I only really crave it every couple weeks.

I'm with Erin, I tend to like my drinks after they've gone a bit flat. I'm happy to be a water lover, with the occasional splurge on flavored lemonades. Although I will say that there is a small part of me that wishes I could just cut soda out of my life and lose a few pounds, right now I'm not really sure what it is I need to cut out. .-= Jenna's most recent blog post: Meeting With The Midwife: Appointment 1 =-.

Wow…I’m the complete opposite…carbonation has always been what keeps me away from soda!

I really love the cheap, storebrand seltzer… flavored or not. There isn’t anything in it!

Coke is my nemesis. The only solution I have is to drink more water. I know a lot of my extra weight is a result of sodas. .-= Rebekah's most recent blog post: DIY Terra Cotta Lamp =-.

I haven’t used this, but have read some good reviews… http://www.sodastreamusa.com/
the packaging alone that you’d save makes it worthwhile if you’re going to drink a lot of sparkling water! I wouldn’t be interested in the mixes they sell, but I LOVE squeezing a grapefruit into a glass of sparkling water, it’s so tasty!

I too am a carbonation addict. Now I'm going to try sparkling water to see if it works for me as well! Thanks for the tip. .-= holly p's most recent blog post: the holiday season. =-.

From one soda-lover to another, Canfield’s Lemon Seltzer has been a great healthier substitute… and it’s only 67 cents for a 2-liter! I love it.

I *love* sparkling water and club soda, especially with a squeeze of lemon or lime. I was actually spending so much money on cases of Gerolsteiner at Trader Joe's a couple of years ago that I wound up buying a soda siphon to make it at home. Glad you were able to find a substitute that satisfies your cravings and makes you feel better! .-= amy i's most recent blog post: Nanaimo Bars =-.
