Last post 6 years ago. 

My 6 pack of Schweppes Tonic Water, bought at Tesco, had 3 empty cans, and 1 half full, which when I opened it, still sparkled. The remaining 2 cans look OK and are seemingly full. Obviously 6 years on, Schweppes or whoever manufactures the cans have made no improvement.

Is Schweppes the only brand available?  I've never seen another brand but if there is one it might be worth switching.

I have the same problem with leaks when I don't return to the US for a number of months. Several brands of flavored sparkling water cans start to leak if left too long. After dealing with some messed up cabinets I just bought a plastic kitty litter tray that holds four six-packs and the problem is now solved.
