is bottled water a beverage?

Apparently not, in Tennessee.

Interesting how the bottled water industry there argues that water is NOT just like Coke and therefore can't be taxed. In Michigan the industry says the water in its bottles is just like the water in soda and therefore there's no problem with profiting off it.

Water captured from springs or rivers or lakes most definitely is not just like Coke.
