Now a new bar in Dubai, the Middle Eastern hub of all things cutting\u002Dedge, is serving \u0022gourmet water.\u0022
“Runners Heaven,” which is high in sodium and potassium, is designed for joggers recovering from the scorching desert heat. “Vegan’s Choice” offers minerals that could be lacking in a strictly herbivorous diet. Customers can fill up their bottles with any of the mineral blends for around 50 cents per 500 millilitres or pay more for mocktails.
Bottled water is the most widely consumed beverage in the United States, with the average American drinking 46.5 gallons a year, compared to 36 gallons of soft drinks, according to the Beverage Marketing Corporation, a consulting group. But it’s rare to find a bar that specializes in water, rather than offering it free of charge to patrons who overindulge in alcohol.
In a nod to sustainability, customers can either fill their bottles or purchase reusable ones starting at around $2.50. “One of the things that are like scraping a chalkboard for me is seeing people walking around with plastic bottles,” said Jabari.Article content
