I can control how concentrated and sweet my drink is.

True, Shel, plain sparkling water is better. But sometimes a diet soft drink serves for my dessert.
Does the target water come in glass or plastic bottles? What is the Torani sweetened with?

Have you ever tried making your own "syrups," like pureing a batch of berries and adding them to sparkling water, and eliminating sugar and sweetners altogether? Have yoi tried Xylitol as a sweetner?
