Did you know, it's "sherbet?" Not, "sherbert."
I definitely grew up pronouncing it, "sure-bert," and didn't think twice of it. Until a college (English) professor of mine went on an, admittedly adorable, rant about this misnomer being one of her biggest pet peeves. I can still hear her voice in my hear strongly emphasizing the "bet," in "sherbet."
Wherever you are professor, I always say sherbet now, and apparently, so does Target.
Ain't no party like a La Croix party 'cause a La Croix party don't stop. Unless you're in Massachusetts where it was temporarily illegal...
That intro started out strong, but I'm too tired to be witty. Anyway, we're still trying to take it easy with soda in our house, and to scratch that itch, we've been drinking a lot of flavored seltzer. Honestly, it's working pretty well, but the only issue is that Aldi only offers citrus and unflavored seltzer. Their lime seltzer is fantastic, but after a month or two, we're getting a little lime'd out. We were craving variety and thankfully, Aldi also carries really random flavors of La Croix. Now this brand is kinda hipster-y, and more expensive than I would like (pretty much twice the Aldi version's price) but I only plan on buying it as a rare treat to break up the monotony.
So, how do they taste?
We're cutting back on soda, as a household, and we've been looking to bubbly water to curb our cravings, and you know what? It's kind of working.
Although all the sugar and citric acid in soda isn't great, our real reason from cutting back is the amount of caffeine we've been ingesting. Between coffee, tea, and soda...it was just too much and it wasn't helping with our already erratic sleep schedules. (Well rested who? We don't know her.)
Thankfully, Aldi has a lot of sparkling water/seltzer varieties to choose from including the bougie mainstream brand La Croix. It's been two weeks of bubbly water, so, here are a few of the items I picked up and what we think!
