Default Perrier

Am I the only person still drinking Perrier (the one with lemon)?

I know a lot of folks think it tastes like Alka-Seltzer..but when I don't (or can't) get my beer fix..like on Induction or during the work week - then I drink lemon-flavored Perrier. Pour it in a wine glass & no one is the wiser.

Ok, it's not fooling me - it's not beer...but it seems to hit the spot.

So does anyone else drink Perrier these days?

Jane

I can't handle the taste. I have tried it a few times and never got used to it.

I love it. I wish I could afford to drink it all the time, but I can't Way too expensive for me. You can't order it in any of the restaurants around here anyway. I usually drink Seltzer water, either the plain or the lemon, It costs about 3.50 for a 12 pack of cans and really tastes almost as good as Perrier.

Gizmo Mom..what is the brand name of the seltzer water you drink....I live just a state away so it may be something I can find...I love Perrier but it does dent the wallet easily. I've only seen unflavored seltzer water..but I love to try the kind with lemon already added in.

The brand name is "vintage" look for a blue box with I think red and white writing. At our Harris Teeter they keep it with the regular softdrinks like coca cola etc. You can look there or in the section where they sell mixed drink mixers like tonic water.

Yep Jane I drink and love it....I don't look at the price, I just put it in my cart and go. But I only buy 1 bottle every 2 weeks. I figure I'm worth it. LOL

I love Perrier too! I buy the unflavored and add my own lemon. Club soda is great with a squeeze of lemon too.

Default Re: Perrier

I also like club soda/soda water with a dash of Angostora Bitters. Tastes like "Christmas".
