Apologies if this isn't supposed to go here but I dunno if it fits anywhere any better. But flavoured water. Like the Volvox stuff. Watermelon, apple, berry etc. Is that okay to drink 2 litres of a day or does it have to be straight, flavourless water?

Water is in food and beverages that we consume, and it all counts. Thirst is a good indicator. You can tell by light, straw colored urine output whether or not you are hydrated adequately.0

You might try flavoring it yourself - those bottled ones I'm sure are loaded with additives you don't need. I will occasionally make a pitcher of flavored water using just strawberries, cucumber, lemon, whatever. I have one of those infusion pitchers where you put what you are using to flavor in a cylinder that immerses in the water.1

As far as hydration goes, it's fine.
I think the one you mentioned is basically a diet soda without the bubbles. If you are okay with those ingredients, then drink it. If you would prefer tea, coffee, coke zero, or something else, have that instead.
I actually learned to appreciate plain water after GERD (reflux) took away all the other options. But, I prefer to drink ones with some natural taste/minerals. Most bottled waters are completely tasteless which I guess other people enjoy, but I grew up drinking spring water.0
