What it is

Purified carbonated water is simply water that has been treated to remove impurities and then infused with carbon dioxide gas under pressure. This process gives the water its characteristic fizz and slight tartness.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use purified carbonated water as a base for beverages like sodas, sparkling waters, and some mixers. Its fizziness provides a desirable mouthfeel and can help carry flavors.

Health notes

Purified carbonated water is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. The FDA has not established specific upper intake levels for carbonated water. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated carbonated water, and it is widely consumed without known adverse health effects at typical intake levels.
