Sparkling mineral water is a naturally-occurring carbonation, as described above. Thomas Henry produced the first forced carbonated water using an apparatus that utilized a pump to impregnate water with fixed air. The main difference is the introduction of potassium bicarbonate and potassium sulfate, which dulls the sharp burn of effervescence. Club soda, sparkling mineral water, seltzer and carbonated water have no calories, which make them a dieters alternative for 7-UP, Mellow Yellow, Mountain Dew and tonic water. Tonic water or quinine water. Tonic water is a carbonated drink containing water, sugar, carbon dioxide and quinine. Quinine was added to the tonic water to help cure or prevent malaria. It comes from the bark of the Cinchona tree that grows in the rain forest on the eastern slopes of the Andes", "Club Soda. In looks and taste, club soda is very similar to both seltzer and mineral water. It contains many of the same compounds that naturally occur in mineral water, except in this case they're artificially added. Ingredients like potassium-bicarbonate and potassium-sulfate lend a slightly salty taste to the water. Seltzer water, mineral water, and club soda are often used interchangeably because, to most people, the flavor difference between them is almost undetectable. Still, Rhoda was right to ask: These bubbly waters are not all built the same.", "Club soda. Club soda is carbonated water that has added minerals like potassium bicarbonate and potassium citrate to enhance the flavor. It can also have added sodium, but not all club sodas contain sodium.

You can purchase flavored seltzers, usually in a citrus flavor, but plain seltzer is simply water that is carbonated.

If you look on the list of ingredients, you'll likely see potassium bicarbonate and potassium sulfate listed.

Tonic water is a bitter drink (a result of the addition of quinine) which pairs particularly well with gin.", "While seltzer is plain carbonated water and nothing but, club soda usually has a few mineral-y ingredients mixed in for added flavor (see the carbonated water, potassium bicarbonate, potassium sulfate listed on the label directly above vs. the simple carbonated water pictured above that on the seltzer bottle). ", "Seltzer water is any sort of man-made carbonated water that is sold as a beverage or mixer. It is very similar to naturally occurring mineral water, except its carbonation has been introduced artificially, and most of the time it does not contain any added minerals, either. ", "The carbonation process gives water a slightly acidic pH. Seltzer or seltzer water is carbonated water to which no other ingredients have been added. It contains only water and carbon dioxide. If you have a SodaStream or other home carbonation system, and you don’t use any added flavorings, you are making seltzer. Soda water is an ambiguous term, probably because it’s been around for a long time: It is what the first commercially available artificially carbonated water was called in the late 18 th century. Today, some people use soda water synonymously with seltzer; other people use it synonymously with club soda.", "For the music venue in Montreal, see Club Soda (Montreal) .
