    Squash is fruit syrup mixed with water, right? If so, I would say yes, it counts as water intake , but make sure to account for the high sugar content (obviously). It is basically soda without the fizz.

    is squash the vegetable that you have blended up? if you only mixed it with water to do so then yes, count the water you took in. the water count is for the pure water you take in during the day. your body needs at the very least 64 ounces of pure water daily to just cleanse and detoxify itself. pop/sodas, juices or whatever else doesn't count towards the ticker. but if you add in water to your fruit or veg smoothies then go ahead and count it if you must. you still need to drink real water.
