Let’s not forget the social angle. When you’re at a party and trying to avoid alcohol, carbonated water is your wingman. It looks like a cocktail, feels like a cocktail, but won’t make you dance awkwardly.
You can sip it with a fancy straw and pretend you’re classy. No one will know you’re secretly hydrating your liver. Shh, it’s our little secret.
And for the designated drivers out there—you’re a hero. Carbonated water makes you look cool while you save lives. We salute you.
