Hello, water lovers!
I’m Ashley Epperson, your Waterlady here at Salacious Drinks, and today, I’m sharing one of my absolute favorite brands: Saint Géron. For anyone who enjoys a little sparkle in their life but skips alcohol like I do, Saint Géron is a perfect choice. This French sparkling water gives you all the elegance of champagne’s tiny bubbles but none of the effects of alcohol. Instead, you’re left with refreshing mineral goodness that feels indulgent and pairs perfectly with a sweet treat.
The Saint Géron Story: A Historic French Mineral Water
Saint Géron hails from Auvergne in the Massif Central region of France, an area rich with volcanic history and minerals that infuse this water with a unique character. The source of Saint Géron has been around since Roman times, once revered as a healing spring, known as “the Queen of Mineral Waters.” The water bubbles up naturally carbonated, which gives it a slight, delightful effervescence that is so refined it practically dances on the palate. And, because Saint Géron is naturally filtered through volcanic rock, every sip tells the story of the earth’s age-old journey.
What’s in Saint Géron?
Beyond its beautiful effervescence, Saint Géron boasts a mineral profile that’s as impressive as its history. With minerals like magnesium, calcium, potassium, and bicarbonate, this water isn’t just refreshing but a great companion for your body. Magnesium and calcium are both essential for healthy bones and muscles, while bicarbonate can aid digestion, especially when enjoyed with food. This mineral combination makes Saint Géron a wellness choice with every pour.
The Perfect Sweet Pairing
One of my personal favorite ways to enjoy Saint Géron is with a delicate dessert—think macarons or dark chocolate. The gentle bubbles and mineral notes balance out the sweetness, making each bite and sip an experience to savor. It’s a bit like having a dessert wine but with a refreshingly modern twist!
