Sparkling flavoured water

For the past 4 months now, as a type 2 diabetic I have started to drink large amounts of sparkling flavoured lemon and lime water every week, as if it is going out of fashion. Is it alright for me, sparkling water, that is?
 
@Earlybird Smith Check the nutrition information label for sugar/carb content, but I would guess it's zero or minimal, so it should be fine.
 
@Earlybird Smith I drink store-brand flavored seltzer water, which is probably very like what you’re drinking. According to the nutrition labeling, it has zero everything. My current flavorites are “Dr Pepper” and “root beer”. They are both quite like the real thing, in a pale non-sweet kind of way. It doesn’t seem to do anything to my bg.
