Difference Between Tonic Water and Sparkling Water
Sparkling water is basically zero calories, zero sugar, zero guilt. It hydrates just as well as still water—no matter what your uncle claims.
Tonic water? A 12‑ounce bottle can pack around 30 grams of sugar. That’s the same as a Coke, but hiding behind a sophisticated name.
“But it has quinine—it’s natural!” I hear you say. Sure, and so is arsenic. The sugar load cancels out any heroic “medicinal” vibes.
