My mom always cut our juice with water when I was a kid as a way to save money. Even powdered drink mixes got twice the water and half the sugar. I really didn't know it was supposed to taste different. But she did us a favor without realizing it, we really didn't need all that sugar. And to this day juice is usually too sweet for me and I have to cut it with something. I think the carbonation makes it more thirst quenching too. And orange juice works so well with the bubbly. Mmm...oranges.
Whats your favorite drink?
