    Big cup with ice and often!
  • Usually, incredibly hot with LOTS of bubbles.

    Oh. I'm guessing that isn't what you meant? ;)

    Mine has to be room temperature except for immediately following a workout, and then of course I want it to be colder, but not ice cold. I just have a problem drinking super cold water for some reason.

    I like my water cold! I either drink plain distilled water or if I'm in the mood with something with flavor, I add a little MiO. It adds flavor without adding calories or anything else that's not necessarily good for you.

    Room temperature. I find that I drink more water each day that way. Cold water is hard to drink for me, unless I'm outside and it's a hot day.

    I love love Sassy Water. From the Flat Belly Diet book. Using a mandolin thinly slice a skinned cucumber, a large lemon (with skin), a little grated fresh ginger and some fresh mint leaves crushed. Fill with filtered water and let sit overnight. I usually make a 1/2 gallon container and drink the whole thing in one day. Just strain and drink! Yummy! and very healthy!

    Cool but not cold, not nice. Room temp is fine too (unless it's really hot out, of course).

    I have super sensitive teeth, ice water causes pain, sometimes even with a straw.

    Oh, and from the tap, bottled water tastes gross.

    I start off with 34 oz ice plain green tea then when it is 3/4 of the way gone I add ice cold water and just keep adding more cold water.... I make sure to drink half my weight in water a day after the tea.

    In an aquafina bottle after being in the freezer for an hour or so. Just enough to have lil ice chunks in it :)

    I like my water cold from the tap and flavored with crystal light or some other type of flavoring. Though I am working my way to not needing flavoring.

    My husband thinks I'm weird because I can only drink cold water when it's really hot ouside. I prefer mine room temp, sometimes with lemon or a drop of peppermint essential oil.

    i have a problem drinking super cold water, also. i prefer no ice in my water so around room temperature. i used to LOVE ice in my water, but now i can't stand my water to be too cold for some reason. i drink more water when it's not freezing cold.
  • room temp. to a little warm. I don't like it straight out of the tap, and was tired of paying for bottled water, so I usually leave a jar of water on the counter - fill my 20oz double walled tumbler 3/4ths full with water out of my insta-hot, then fill it the rest of the way with room temp. water and a bit of lemon juice or stevia drops (to make it a little sweet). I try and drink a gallon a day. I like the Sassy water idea!! I'm going to try this!!!
  • Cold in a bottle and after a workout I guzzle the bottle !

    Iced filled with a straw. I use bottled water (from a water cooler). Our tap water has a taste. Water shouldn't taste.

    Super cold out of the freezer is the best! Don't like warm or room temp.
