Advantages: Water is always good for you! Disadvantages: This one can be expensive.
...one I mean.
This San Pellegrino carbonated water comes in an emerald green glass bottle with silver twist lid. Now I am sure this first description is rather selective in itself as the majority of the bottled waters we know are in blue or light blue plastic containers. If you have in mind the French Perrier bottle, that is exactly the shape you should picture in your mind, a bit of a chubby bottle, but the label, or rather the labels on this product ... ...pochino di storia)

Advantages: Bottled at source.good balance of minerals. Disadvantages: quite expensive.
...is when they opened the San Pellegrino headquarters and had this mineral water manufactured...?
Have you ever watched the way the spring mountainside waters in this part of the meditteranean climes bursts forth in a violent spray of sheer heady enthusiasm.?
On the left and right of the label there is a comprehensible list of ingrediants which I shall not divulge,but rest assured,all totally mineral water.
On the back label it promises a superb ... ...Alps.
PRICE:
So is this why 1 bottle will set you back 62p! (Asda and Tesco's?!)
Serve chilled,and try not to spill it at that price.
Keep out of sunlight,store in a fridge-NOT room temperature,English style please!!
There is only one address:
358,Lygon Street,Brunswick-Melbourne-Victoria-Australia.(No English please!!!)
Altogether,a satisfying and refreshing beverage.

Advantages: Refreshing and Posy Disadvantages: It's just Water
...I’m only aware of San Pellegrino because they sell it in Costas coffee bar , but my girlfriend assures me it is very big in Italy. Like any carbonated drink , it has to be served cold to fully appreciate its refreshing effect, and Costas do ensure that it is always very cold. It’s an excellent alternative to the coffee that they serve there and refreshingly different to your standard cold drinks such as Pepsi and Coke.
When all comes ... ...all the associated minerals and whatever that come with such products. As an aside did you realise that the water that comes out of your tap has to pass far more stringent purity tests than the bottled spring waters? I also liked the story about the guy who produced a product called “Thames Spring” , but was stopped when they found he was just filling bottles from his tap. (I think “Only Fools and Horses” pinched this idea ...

Advantages: Great tasting. Goes great with meals. Disadvantages: Rather expensive.
...like soda. This was not San Pellegrino, but rather The Holy Water Of Rome(or so it is translated).
I first noticed San Pellegrino being served in fine restaurants all over Italy. When I returned and was older, this was somewhat of a water of choice, for most Italians. It was said that the water actually eases in digestion, and is reccomended with meals. I agree. It was reasonably priced in Italy as compared to the US I noticed.
I know most people ... ...bloating, and more settling.
San Pellegrino costs about $2 for a 750 ml. bottle here in the US. I think this is rather expensive, but I do indulge occasionally and buy a few bottles. The taste is smooth and refreshing. The carbonation is by no means overpowering or bloating. Speaking for myself, I believe that this water may have healing affects for some gastro-intestinal problems. The good thing about this particular water is that it has very little ...

Advantages: With italian food it's the only credible alterative to red wine Disadvantages: doesn't taste good out of plastic bottles
...too much in fact) but San Pellegrino can replace it no question when eating in an Italian restaurant. I can still be tempted by a good barolo (excellent Italian red wine with fantastic fruity taste) - I'm not commenting on that now - but even then I order both.
At home I find it easier to drink than most mineral waters as there is no "bloating" effect, and its very good after a heavy nights boozing as it goes down easily in reasonable quantity to ... ...glass bottle with a quaint old fashioned sort of label. The first time I had it I even got a free pen shaped as an Italian waiter! I have tried a large number of other mineral waters, sparkling and still, British, French and Italian, but nothing comes close to its ability to refresh without invading the taste buds but still feeling like a drink, an important factor if you're having particularly good food. ...

Advantages: Great tasting with any meal or as a snack Disadvantages: price
Pellegrino is the best sparkling water there is, as far as I'm concerned. I was first introduced to it at a lavish dinner party, but have found myself drinking it with just about anything. I replaced my usual bottles of water during the day with Pellegrino. Although it may be a little pricey, it is definitely worth it. It comes in a green tinted bottle with a light blue label. The eye catcher on the bottle is a red star. It was created in 1899 and ... ...than having a soda on a work break. My friends sometimes make fun of me when I'm sitting around drinking out of the bottle (it's so good I dont even go for a glass) - Many people associate this water with a fancy restaurant or italian thanksgiving.. when in fact it is truely delicious with just about anything! ...

Advantages: none Disadvantages: not a good move to change from glass to plastic
I love San Pellegrino mineral water, I agree with the previous reviewer. It is light and refreshing and not at all gassy. My only gripe is that I used to be able to buy it in large, glass bottles but for some ridiculous reason (certainly not a green one) I can only find the larger sizes in nasty plastic bottles. Were I to buy teeny bottles of San Pellegrino, I would have the pleasure of glass but I don't want a teeny bottle, I want a great big bottle ... ...they changed to plastic? I didn't buy the water for a long time after the change, but now I have sneaked it back onto my shopping list. I am concerned, though, as, apart from the recycling point-of-view, I am sure it is less healthy to buy water in plastic bottles as the chemicals can leach into the water.
5 stars for the water but 0 stars for the plastic bottles! OK, I gave it 1 star as I was forced to by the rating system on here! ...

Quick review of San Pellegrino Carbonated Mineral Water
I just purchased san pellegrino for the first time. I live in the US and there were very few choices of sparkling water out in the countryside where I live. San pellegrino was the only one that was made with mineral water and didn't include any sugars or artificial sweeteners. It was expensive, but I was looking for an alternative to sodas. I don't like plain carbonated waters. My mission was to find something to mix with unsweetened 100% fruit juices and make my own 'sparkling juice'. And viola! It worked like a charm. I am now drinking my own homemade Grape Soda. It tastes awesome and I know it is healthy for me. Perfect! ...

Quick review of San Pellegrino Carbonated Mineral Water
I tried many mineral waters but I have to say I am impressed. One thing I noticed no one commented on is the P.H. I have had an acid tongue and mouth for quite a while and as the water is alkaline it cleared this up and soothed it in a matter of days. Clarity of the palate is also very noticeable
The minerals are just what my body needed as well. I will buy this product always as my choice of mineral water and I am very impressed. If god allows it one day I hope to visit the spa. The photos of this area are really beautiful and the spa itself is a true work of wonderful masonry.
I feel so much better. Thanks to you and Happy Easter!!.
Yours,
Michael ...
