La Croix
I love La Croix. It has almost fully supplanted all other non-alcoholic carbonated beverages in my house. Every now and then I'll pick up a Dr. Pepper, but very rarely. I prefer the lemon flavor; my wife drinks the fruitier shite.

I've tried some sparkling water but, if honestly rather drink plain water because the flavor was not good. It could've been just the brand.. Was just some cheap Great Value stuff.
Try La Croix. I've only talked to one person who didn't like it. He claimed it tasted like tonic. Everyone else says it's like crack.

Try diluting your soda with low sodium club soda, while looking for an alternative.

Mio has some pretty good flavors. I did whole 30 a while back and would do half and half of fruit juice and carbonated water. It wasn't bad at all.

This. We keep bottled water chilled in the fridge and mix in a random flavored pack whenever we want something to drink. It's what I used to break the soda habit.
I'm sure the artificial sweetener in it will give me cancer, but at least I won't be obese when it happens.

Yep. Try a few and see what you like. I much prefer the iced tea to the fruit flavors, but they have many options. I refill a water bottle at work and add Mio to the strength desired.
La Croix is my other alternative. Lime and pamplemousse are my favorites.

This. BUT...it takes time and at least one 12 pack. You are going to hate it at first. Just think of it as medicine/therapy. I now love at least three of them. Lime and Peach/Pear go great with bourbon btw.

Flavored carbonated water.
La Croix and all of the off brand variants. Wife and I plow through the Albertsons off brand flavored carbonated water.

Topo Chico. I used to drink soft drinks all the time. This is by far the best sparkling water I've ever had, and I buy multiple 12 packs at a time. Now, when I drink soft drinks, it tastes to me like carbonated water with a bunch of sweet syrup poured into it, since I'm so used to the Topo Chico. I can't even drink soft drinks anymore (which seems to be your goal).
Do yourself a favor and buy it. They have flavored ones that are very subtly flavored too, if you want to try that first before switching to plain sparkling water. I have friends who don't like sparkling water but like Topo Chico. Good luck!

La Croix is fantastic. Just remember: it's NOWHERE near as sweet as a soft drink. After I got used to it, it's all I drink. I still get that addicting zing of the carbonation, but no calories, no aritificial sweeteners, additives or carcinogenic preservatives, and no sugar.

La Croix is the way to go. It took me a little while to get used to it (I hated it at first), but I kept trying different flavors and now its my go too when I'm not drinking water.
I'm pretty much completely off of Coke/Soda at this point.

I had a LA Croix and it tasted like chapstick to me.

I'll second this. I love the Black Cherry flavor.

I saw 750 mL San Pellegrino bottles today. If unfinished, do they last until next day or is too much carbonation lost?
