Lacroix

Fizzy flavored water

LaCroix is a brand of flavored sparkling water, typically sold in colorful cans.

The name is French but the product is American, manufactured in Wisconsin.

It became popular in the 2010s as a healthier alternative to soda: The office fridge is stocked with LaCroix.

The flavors—pamplemousse, coconut, lime—are famously subtle, often described as tasting like fruit was whispered to the water from across the room.
