Hi bride2b,
Don't you have carbonated water in your country? If it's only the carbonation you want you could drink it with a twist of lemon and it would be almost as good as mormal water - if the issue is caffeine that's a different matter.
With regard to nitrates, these are added to the brine in which meats are preserved in small quantities to kill bacteria like botulism. Some people are violently against them and pay lots of money for nitrate free bacon etc. Personally I don't care and eat them anyway. It's up to you to decide.
P.S. If you fill in the 'location' on your profile it would help people when giving you advice. I am English but live in the ex USSR - we are a really international community here .
