Do your lines stay pretty clean? You changing salts?
The lines stay clean. I have one line dedicated to sparkling water and it's never had beer in that line. I add the lime when I serve, so it's just regular old water in the keg.
I use a perrier water profile. Ca 160, Chloride 19, Sulfate 30, Na 9.3, Mg 4.3, Carbonate 366. Pressure is set and left around 25, which sometimes makes serving fun. I could probably do with a longer line on that keg to reduce the force at the tap.

I have considered doing this so many times. I think you just convinced me.
If you're like me, once you do it you'll kick yourself for not having done it sooner. Plus I find a glass of sparkling water feels so much better after hard work outside.

Agree that this is complete hogwash. The compounds mentioned are naturally occurring citrus oils—the exact things that give lemons, limes, and lemongrass their particular flavors.

This reminds me of when Facebook blew up about there being "fecal bacteria" in men's beards, and therefore OH MY GOD MEN HAVE shite IN THEIR BEARDS. Simply because a particular thing is found in another particular thing doesn't make them synonymous.

I’ve made cherry lime in my sodastream. Bought some cherry extract and lime packets. Pretty easy and tastes better. I also carbonate it a bunch so it’s really fizzy. Tap water is cheap.

No boiling. Just run tap water through a charcoal filter directly in to my keg. I add salts directly in the keg, too.

Press release, 'Merica:
National Beverage Corp. (NASDAQ:FIZZ) is receiving emotional outcries on behalf of LaCroix.
"There is an unspoken phrase within a cult - 'We got each other's back!' Well, there has been a loud cry of support from our LaCroix consumers embracing the brand that they love - Don't hurt our LaCroix!" repeated Nick A. Caporella, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.
Heartfelt expressions from our cult following:
"LaCroix is taking it on the chin for everyone in the sparkling water and juice industries, but this is not a fair fight. Our LaCroix is made with natural ingredients magnified through love and caring. I get a feeling of inner peace; a feeling that my LaCroix is made with 'Innocent' avowed on it. I love my LaCroix - it is an excellent product - doesn't our Innocent claim mean anything?"
Essence is our picture word that means:
Nose Sensory, Aroma, Tongue Sense, Measured Taste and Mouth Feel . . . How we use and develop each of these 'senses' relative to all of the above is proprietary.
It is extremely rare to pop open the tab and (1) instantly 'smell' toasted meringue; (2) taste a tangy Florida cay Lime; and (3) on the end of the tongue sense a graham cracker flavor. That is exactly what happens when experiencing LaCroix Key Lime . . . so in National Beverage lingo, essence is - FEELINGS and Sensory Effects!
Naturally Essenced means how we accomplish and create these feelings and taste notes (1) (2) (3) during our production process!
All Natural is a technical regulatory criterion that each and every ingredient must adhere to! LaCroix is developed and produced to extremely complex, high standards . . . quite separate and apart from all others!
Some beverage products from other companies that claim to be "sparkling waters" are sweetened or use artificial ingredients that aid in flavor preservation and product consistency. Although other companies may use the word "essence", it is just their way of trying to copy LaCroix. Naturally Essenced is not a marketing ploy, but rather a core product element!
Our marketing, as is the case with all that we do, is centered on profoundness, innovation and creativity. LaCroix has a devoted fan base that is quick to share its LaCroix 'experience' through social media channels. LaCroix continues to expertly innovate and strives to meet changing consumer's demands.
Our Cult, our Consumer, our Love and our LaCroix are . . . Genuinely Natural!
Our Way is Tastefully . . .
Sparkling !!
Innovation should be new - but ours has the 'essence' to refresh and captivate with FIZZ + Fun

On Gameday, there a sign, "Wisconsin Chases with LaCroix". I didn't get it.

Did not see it, was at Parleaux Labs brewing watching the game.
