I drink a lot of water. Normal tap water sometimes filtered but water from my tap tastes great regardless. Most often I do use plenty of ice cubes as I prefer cold water over tepid. I drink bottled water as well if someone offers and don't have a taste preference although I like to support locally so if I buy one it's Dasani. I remember in college my roommates and I very briefly were into New York Seltzer water's various flavors and when I'm in Europe I drink lots of Spa mineral water. Blue only though.
Being a fan of water I recently tried a Peach bubly sparkling water. It was one of the most horrible things i have ever tasted. I only managed 3 small sips so I could give it a fair test. It was like someone accidentally created a rotted peach chemical flavor and decided to carbonate it for some sadistic reason known only to sociopaths.
Anyone like those horrible things and are all the flavors equally wretched?

No, those sparkling waters leave a weird aftertaste in my mouth and they don't quench my thirst.

Some of them are like that, while others are not. I drink tons of Polar seltzers and my favorites are Lemon, Vanilla and Orange. They have dozens of others flavors, some better than others, but yeah, many of them have that weird chemical aftertaste.
Trader Joes has some good ones too. Their pineapple is quite tasty.

I love unflavored chilled sparkling water and drink it practically every day. I always have some bottles at home. I am seriously considering buying one of those machines that make sparkling water, so as to cut down on my consumption of plastic.
As for flavors, I'll tolerate lime or lemon if unflavored is not an option. Anything else, no thanks. I remember tasting a cherry one and a mixed berries one and hating them.

I love sparkling flavored water. But I buy only bottled, because the canned stuff always has that well preserved tin taste. So Bubly is off the market for me until I see it in bottles.

I drink a lot of Safeway's brand, but I don't care for all flavors. "Mixed Berry," is my fave, and "Lemon" and "Lime" (separate, not "lemon-lime") are good, too.
I've never seen peach flavored sparkling water, but it doesn't sound at all appealing.

I haven't tried Polar but every other carbonated water I've tried was kind of gross. It might not be for me.

I like a few flavors. Some are just awful.
I think when it comes to unsweetened flavored sparkling waters, Wegman's store brand is better than anyone else's

I don't care for Bubly, so I don't get it even when it's super cheap. Strawberry is tolerable.
I drink about 8 cans a day, and if I run out I'll use my sodastream.
Favorites:
La Croix Key Lime
Waterloo Peach
Waterloo Grape
Absolutely hate Dasani.

The one I tried long ago didn't seem to have enough flavor added to make a difference or block out the plain carbonated water taste.
I prefer the sparking juice brands S.Pellegrino and Izze.

You can tell a good sparkling water if it still tastes good when the fizz is gone and/or if it's not cold. If I have leftovers of the ones I like, I'll just have them with ice.
