Lately, it’s been pretty clear that the worlds of health and alcohol have collided. The rising interest in health and fitness has made many drinkers rethink their alcohol choices, with more health-focused options on the market than ever before. From low-calorie options to non-alcoholic options, we live in a time where there’s a canned cocktail option for every type of drinker. For those who have sensitive stomachs, drinks with no carbonation are the smartest choice. Here’s why the zero-carbonation Dad Water is my go-to summer ready-to-drink cocktail.
A ready-to-drink cocktail with no carbonation
As a sporadic drinker, I carefully consider my drink choice when I do finally decide to drink. Throughout the summer, I’m more likely to drink while relaxing on the beach or attending a backyard BBQ. Though I enjoy other low-sugar, low-calorie canned options like High Noons or White Claws, these drinks have one clear disadvantage: carbonation.
Carbonated beverages like these leave me feeling full and bloated after drinking just one or two. The heaviness of the bubbles makes it almost impossible to drink in a reasonable amount of time. The Carbon Dioxide bubbles in carbonated drinks are responsible for leaving you with that heavy, full feeling. As someone with a sensitive stomach, I consider that heavy feeling almost to be a buzz-kill. After a while, I’ve learned to avoid carbonated
The lack of carbonation is why I’m hooked on Dad Waters. As the name suggests, the beverage’s texture is more like “water” and less like your typical beer or seltzer. This is a game changer (especially if you hate that heavy fullness feeling from carbonation, too).
Dad Waters are like water
Dad Waters was marketed as non-carbonated fruit-infused tequila water, specifically for those who don’t enjoy carbonation. These ready-to-drink cocktails contain no artificial sweeteners or preservatives, no sugar, and of course, no carbonation. If you’re not big on tequila, you can also give the sister product, Mom Water, a try. Mom Waters are similar but are made with fruit-infused vodka instead of tequila.
The packaging of Dad Waters seems like your typical canned beverage, but the taste is unique. If you want something light and classic, start with the “Tom”, an original tequila water infused with lime. This flavor has a very faint lime taste that is refreshing and easy to sip. This is my favorite flavor because it’s like drinking water.
If you like cocktails with a bit more of a kick, the “Gary” might be your go-to choice. The “Gary” flavor adds a touch of spice to your drink with an infusion of pineapple and jalapeno. The “Rodney” flavor has a slight blood orange flavor, and the “Steve” is slightly more tart with an injection of grapefruit. All the drinks are pretty smooth, and most importantly, have no carbonation. You can now enjoy a light buzz without feeling stuffed, bloated, and uncomfortable.
