No. They cannot force you to use their water to prepare coffee or tea.

Where did you hear that?
The water would be 10 times more expensive then the tea or coffee and would do nothing better( tap would be as good).
The best thing to use is Distilled water.
What site is this your talking about?
I'd love to see it.
thx
We are not talking about alcohol.
We are talking about a useless bottled water.
( most of which are tap water anyway).
Distilled is the best because it doesn't contain minerals that would alter the taste of the tea or coffee.
( also, I don't drink( thankfully).

I find that much of the bitterness is removed from my tea and coffee when I use filter or bottles water.
EDIT:
I prefer to drink things I enjoy the taste of. I use filtered water in my coffee,grind my own bean and use a French Press. I spend more to buy premium beer rather than cheap crap made from corn. I would pay $20 for an alcoholic beverage… I've spent $50 for a 12oz beer before.
What is the point of drinking something if not the enjoyment?

There's a billion coffee and tea drinkers in the world. Do you think they all buy Evian? If they all used Evian would that company have a better stock value?

I have found that quality water makes for a quality coffee, but regular tap water works just as well

The only reason the manufacturers of coffee makers suggest using the bottled water, is so that there are fewer impurities going into the machine. They don't give a flying fig about the outcome of your coffee or tea, they're just telling you what they suggest for their machines.
I use tap water to make my coffee, and clean the machine once a month with vinegar. No problems with my machine, or the coffee and tea I brew.
Like Mayor Adam West hinted at, it's better when you use fresh ingredients. Fresh ground coffee ALWAYS tastes better than the stuff you buy in the cans at the store. However, I don't always have time to grind my own, so I use the stuff I found on sale and put in my Gevalia container. lol
When it comes to alcohol…. if it really tastes good, then price is no real object. You pay for quality… or at least you should. You only live once, so pamper yourself.

No, it is not necessary to use Evian water to prepare tea or coffee. People have been making tea and coffee for thousands of years, it is not necessary.
There are many other factors that play a role in making tea or coffee, such as water temperature, steeping time, percolation time and pressure, etc.
Unless your tap water is seriously screwed up, I believe there is a lot of other techniques to brewing that are more important.
What they call cold toddy method will make a huge difference in flavor, as opposed to sun tea, which will make a huge difference as opposed to hot brewing tea. Same goes for coffee.
Seriously, great tea comes from China, where they are even lucky to find a clean water source, and then they boil it over a make shift fire and grate. They take their tea harvesting serious, don't get me wrong, but I would say less that 5% of the population worries about buying bottled water to make their tea. Most Chinese would swear by some local spring water before they would use any bottled water.
Only a Western, pretentious, intellectual wannabe would even waste time worrying about such a ridiculous idea. Good tea and coffee comes from the main ingredients used and how they were prepared, how you brew them, and how you drink them, and the company you are with when doing so. I would easily say water quality is probably the least important part since the countries that are known for creating the tea and coffee movement don't have fountains flowing free with RO, distilled, or even purified water.
