You can't stop him from drinking whatever he wants, whenever he wants.
But it IS reasonable to say, "The grocery runs are hard enough without me having to get you a heavy crate of water every single week. You're on your own to stock your preferred drink."

What's the real issue? Is money tight? Does he not help with the groceries? Are you not getting enough (you know what I mean)? Because this is not really something to fight about. Life is way too short.

OP... I say this kindly but you are being a crazy person. This isn’t a problem.

My whole family drinks plain club soda. I buy the 12 pack of cans when it goes on sale.
I would try switching everyone over to that and save the Perrier for special occasions.
But if he insists on Perrier that isn't even worth arguing about.

Bottled water is a waste of money and its bad for the environment too but this is a stupid thing to argue with your husband about.
The soda stream idea is a good one.

He buys them himself, lugs them himself. Done.
To be clear, it's not the 6-pack of tiny bottles, I'm talking big 1L bottle tables are supposed to share. I was raised that sparkling water is more-so a palate cleanser, it's uncouth to lap it up like you just finished a sportball match. Drives me up a wall to see all those empty 1L bottles stacking up.
Oh, OP. I was having a bad day, but this, this is really warming my soul. I'm going to hold this tidbit close to my heart. Thank you.

He refuses any other sparkling or soda water. Perrier only.
OP- I totally understand where you are coming from and this would annoy me too (doesn't this make him burp big time?!?) but
You. Need. To. Let. It. Go.
This is so minor, just drop it. Seriously. Let the man have his stupid bubbly water, maybe reopen the Sodastream discussion once every year.
This is a rare DCUM consensus so we are right and you are not.
You gotta let this go. This is unbelievably minor in the big scheme of things. Believe me, if you'd dealt with the financial and other effects of a spouse's drinking (alcohol) problem, you'd consider 2L of Perrier a day a godsend. (When spouse stopped drinking, seltzer consumption went through the roof.)

Didn’t realize that drinking sparkling water mostly was an addiction.

Stop buying it and serve tap water at the table. If you are buying it and serving it, you are enabling him. We don't keep bottled water in the house. If your husband wants to buy it for himself, let him do so.
I also feel that a large amount of plastic waste is grotesque in this day when we know better.
