Definition
Carbonated water is water that has been infused with carbon dioxide gas under pressure. This process creates bubbles, giving it a fizzy or sparkling texture. Think of it as water with a little pizzazz! It's often used as a base for cocktails and other beverages. The level of carbonation can vary, from lightly sparkling to intensely fizzy. It's a popular alternative to sugary sodas and can be flavored with fruit or herbs. Some people find it more refreshing than still water.
