Diabetes: Sparkling Water Beverages for Diabetes

Diabetes: Sparkling Water Beverages for Diabetes

For diabetes, I can recommend flavored sparkling water beverages, which come in 1 liter bottles. Giant food store has them, Shoppers Food Warehouse has them, and WalMart has a version (Giant foodstore calls theirs "Splash, Shoppers calls theirs "Chill").

Each store carries different groups of flavors. I can recommend key lime, blackberry/raspberry, blackberry/apple, raspberry, strawberry, kiwi/strawberry, and lemon flavors.

Pay attention that you are selecting the "beverage" version, rather than similarly packaged flavored "seltzer." The difference is that the beverage is sparkling (less carbonation) and, importantly, is sweetened with artificial sweetner; the seltzer is not sweetened. These are very good and can be enjoyed by diabetics.
