Seltzer Water Summer

My foray into the seltzer world was a little awkward but I’m glad I went for it. A recent Town and Country magazine article published their thoughts on the matter with, ‘The Best Hard Seltzers Brands to Drink This Summer’ (April 2019). Their thoroughness in describing seltzer history, options and affordability was a great source for understanding the whole adult beverage market and, while these are the iterations of one person, I think they’re pretty accurate in the extensive research I’ve done (wink wink).
