If you’re tempted to try high pH water, here’s a pro tip: start small. Buy a single bottle or invest in a pH-testing kit to check your tap water first. Most natural spring waters have a pH between 6.5 and 8.5, which is perfectly safe.
For a DIY vibe, add a pinch of baking soda to a glass of water—it raises the pH and gives you a mineral boost. Just don’t overdo it; too much can affect your stomach’s natural balance.

Did you know that rainwater has a naturally low pH (around 5.6) because it absorbs carbon dioxide from the air? That’s why it’s slightly acidic. On the flip side, the water in some Icelandic springs can hit a pH of 8.5 or higher—thanks to volcanic rock.
And here’s a weird one: the pH of your favorite sparkling water is often lower (more acidic) than still water because of the carbonic acid from bubbles. So if you’re sipping LaCroix, you’re technically drinking something closer to lemonade than to alkaline water.
