Blatant recommendation - San Pellegrino Blood Orange soda.

I have their sparkling water at home regularly. Saw this blood orange soda on sale in 6-pack cans. Really liked it. Kind of sweet/tart.
(fyi - contains sugar, if that's a dietary issue).

But prolly not, as its cans and not bottles.
USED to get pricy sparkling waters, then decided club soda/seltzer just as good. NOW I settle for tap water; saving zillions!

2. Yeah, hear you. Probably could make an equivalent with juiced oranges, a bit of sugar and water.

I'd still add some club soda for the fizz, though.

those who do not drink, and both soda make a fantastic vodka mixer. The lemon works for bourbon, too.
