Has anyone dissolved the salts into carbonated water?
I bought some flavorless sparkling water that already had some sodium, potassium, and magnesium in it. I thought, “what the hell, let’s add some more!”
I added ½ teaspoon of pink salt and ½ potassium chloride into the 12oz/355mL can.
Based on the 1:1:1 teaspoon in 2L recipe, this was roughly a 2.8X concentration, and I barely tasted it.
I’ve made my Juice pretty stiff in the past. And surfing in Hawaii, I’ve swallowed my fair share of ocean water, so I can handle his it normally tastes.
But, I think that the fact that the bubbles can buffer the saltiness is game changing.
Haven’t dissolved into carbonated water.
But, I have carbonated a beer keg with snake juice right now. I used to always keep a keg of carbonated water on tap, but now with fasts I’ve put snake juice on tap.
I’m unsure if the lower pH from carbonating with CO2 affects anything negatively.
I use liquid magnesium citrate and the citric acid in it makes the baking soda carbonate the water. There’s also a similar chemical reaction with the liquid mio-style flavoring I put into my snake juice. I don’t prefer it but it definitely ensures I sip the snake juice rather than chug it.
