    Sparkling water has been very popular in Europe for a long time. There, it is serveds in restaurants instead of tap water. Recently, it has also become a hit in other parts of the world, including North America and Asia. On average, people around the world are spending almost US$30 billion on" sparkling water every year.
    A British scientist named William Brownrigg created this drink by accidents in the mid-1700s. At that time, he added carbon dioxide' gas to water, which created the bubbles and made the water "sparkle." Later, sparkling water caught on in Europe because people believed that it had healing powers. One German man named J.J. Schweppe learned how to make sparkling water himself and started selling it in bottles in 1783. Today, one of the most popular brands of sparkling water is named after him: Schweppes.
