Filtered Carbonated Water
Neutral

Filtered carbonated water is primarily neutral as it serves as the base of the beverage without adding significant nutritional value. The carbonation process involves dissolving carbon dioxide gas under pressure, which does not alter the water's purity. It is generally considered safe and hydrating, similar to regular water.
