What it is

Sparkling water is water that has been infused with carbon dioxide gas under pressure. This process creates bubbles, giving it a fizzy or effervescent quality. It is often naturally sourced from springs or wells, or it can be purified tap water.

Why it's used

Sparkling water is primarily used as a beverage base, offering a refreshing alternative to still water or sugary drinks. Manufacturers add it to create carbonated beverages, often flavored with fruit extracts or other natural flavors, and it can also be used as a mixer in cocktails.

Health notes

Sparkling water is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for consumption. The FDA has not established specific upper intake levels for carbonated water. While some people report increased bloating or gas, these effects are typically mild and temporary. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated carbonated water, and EFSA has also assessed its safety.

Allergen info

Sparkling water is not derived from any of the nine FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
