13 for me please Cathybird

DIA, I tend to drink sparkling water as I am trying to avoid drinking calories and artificial sweeteners. I did try the AF fizz but really didn't like it, DS1 tried the AF fruit ciders and said just full of sugar.

Thanks @redofromstart I drink fizzy water too. I am fast coming to the conclusion that there are no nice AF drinks that are not sugar or sweetener heavy...Mum mum used to make a lovely fermented ginger beer and lemon juice. !00% natural. Topped up with fizzy water would be nice...watch this space
