Everyone I know drinks White Claws these days. (or another hard seltzer)
Try Henry's hard sparkling water. I prefer it significantly to White Claw.

Serious question from a person who’s waaaaay out of the loop. Is the point to be able to drink without calories? Or does it still have calories and you’re trying to avoid beer/wine/mixer calories? May need to check it out!

It has calories, and I only know about it from seeing my 20's niece talk about it. Seems to be this generation's wine cooler or Zima equivalent. Cheap, sweet, and easy, baby!

May need to check it out! No they aren’t calorie free but they are on the “lighter” to drink, since there are no high caloric mixers. For example, I thought they were great last summer in Boise when it was 100+ degrees outside. |

I had my one and only out on the boat with some of our family recently. It was cold and refreshing on a hot day, but not something I would want to drink regularly.

Its not great, but it doesn't taste boozey at all. They also had a flat spiked water...still something. It was good!
Appaently the best white claw is pineapple but it's rare.

I'm more of a whiskey drinker, but when by the pool, I like the ones made by Crook & Marker. It's keto-friendly and tastes great! I've tried the one by Bon & Viv and it was disgusting.

I prefer hard cider but the mango WC wasn’t too bad. It reminds me of an alcoholic version of La Croix or other sparkling water.

Most hard seltzer brands are actually NOT sweet, which I think is why a lot of people like them. They do taste like spiked La Croixs, as another pea mentioned. I can’t remember what Zima tasted like — is it sweet? |

I bought some on a whim one day at the store. I had one and then gave the rest away. I would rather have whiskey or straight up vodka.

The comparison was to each younger generation's single-serving popular party beverage of choice, which I'm sure were also enjoyed by people outside of that demographic. |

It’s just flavored water like La Croix with flavorless alcohol added to it. If your goal is to get a little buzz and stay hydrated with the fewest calories, it’s a boring but good choice.
I’m in the PNW, so I much prefer a nice local cider. They have so many good ones here.

I tried some at a fancy brewery, and I was left sort of scratching my head. Some of the flavors were okay, but they all tasted like seltzer. Why would I want alcohol added if it doesn't taste better? I do enjoy beer/wine/spirits, but not just for the purpose of a "buzz". Maybe I'm getting old...  |

As someone else said, it's LaCroix with alcohol. Flavored seltzer water. If you don't like seltzer water, you won't like it. There is no sweetener in it at all. I really like it because it's light and not super sugary, though I have nothing against a nice slushy margarita or daiquiri. Sometimes I'll mix a hard seltzer with a little soursop juice or mango nectar if I want a little sweetness.

I don't drink often, but about a year ago I had a grapefruit seltzer like drink that I really liked. I wish I could remember what it was called. I have tried a few others since then and none were as good. This was a little sweeter than white claw but not overly sweet.
