IMHO, bottled water varies greatly in taste and quality. While there are those that include minerals and other things added for taste, others claim to be more natural. One thing is for sure, when the heat index is 110 or more and you're working in a pasture or somewhere that's nowhere close to a store, bottled water is a good thing to have.
I've been a long fan of Nestle bottled water for some time now, but had something happen this past weekend that may have me trying something different. I noticed the bottle said is has minerals added for taste. I also noticed it comes from Pasadena's (TX) public water supply. A friend and I were working on a shed and I've never drank as much of the stuff as I did this weekend. Not sure my digestive system liked having to deal with so much of it.
What bottled water do you usually throw in your ice chest and why?

HEB sparkling water, I like the price and flavor.

Ozarka seems to be consistent and from Texas. But I usually fill up my Bison 64 oz growler with tap water and take it with me. It'll stay cold all day if you add a few ice cubes.

Ice cold bottle water taste same to me in general on a hot day
I buy the 8 oz small bottle from Costco, just enough to quench your thirst and no left overs
I think you get like 80 bottles per case

Pasadena? I know it sounds "one upper", and I rarely ever buy it, but Fiji is unbelievably good. Expensive, but good.

Any that have hops and barley added. Or tap water that is magically turned into tea with the sun and teal bags.

I almost always have a water cup with me and I like the taste of ozarka spring water. Dasani taste salty to me. "Filtered water" is just that... tap water that has gone thru a filter. I read somewhere they can't label it "spring water" unless it actually comes from a spring, but I'm not certain on that.

Ill drink bottled water if that's what is there, but I do not care for bottled water. When we work outside we fill 5 gal igloo from the hose at the house and drink that. I also prefer my water cool but not ice cold, hurts my teeth.

If you guys compared any bottled water to 5 stage RO water in taste and cleanliness using a use good TDS meter to measure each sample, you would never buy another bottle until the one you are refilling wears out.

Ozarka. We get it free at work so its a win/win. They create quite a few jobs here in ETX, too.
