Iced fruit tea is delicious, especially the berry ones. Make double strength then pour over ice when it is steeped.

^^ I LOVE iced tea!

I have Robinsons No Added Sugar in mine. There's loads of flavours now, Orange, Orange & Pineapple, Strawberry & Kiwi......I really struggle to drink water as it is and could not drink tap water to save my life!! I have to buy bottle. Hubby thinks i'm mad but I don't care what anyone says, there is a totally different taste between the two!

buy flavored water or use crystal light. I also don't like water that much but force myself to drink it, especially when exercising. If you're eating enough fruits then you get water that way, so you really don't need to drink the full 8 glasses per day.

Herbal teas are wonderful and can have added health benefits. I have trained myself to drink unsweetened tea, and now can't stand the syrupy taste of most sweetened teas. I would prefer to consume those calories from somewhere else.

I also recently gave up drinking soda. I am trying to not use any artificial sweeteners as well. I use a drink mix called true lemon. They have a raspberry lemonade sweetened with stevia that is only 5 calories (my favorite!). They also have lemon, lime and orange flavors. You can also add a few slices of any citrus or berries to a pitcher of ice water to flavor it, or some cucumber or mint.

Tea is also good. I love most fruity herbal teas. It's gotten to the point where I can drink them with no sweeteners added and it tastes great. Hang in there!

I hate water, but since trying Mio I can get at least 3 glasses down.

Hi,
lemon, splenda (1-2 packs), strawberry, orange or lemon slices, and mint leaves give a great taste. Use lots of ice!

I hate water, too...unless it is cleverly disguised as Diet Mountain Dew. :laugh:

I must be the only one who likes water!

It took awhile for me to get there, but I can honestly say I like it. I drink it with the Crystal Lite stuff as well, but sometimes a big glass of ice water is nice...or I even drink it room temperature.

I find it funny how something that is pure and without taste can be despised but if you pour in crappy chemicals for flavor its A-ok . I drink water because its whats best for your body. My body could care less what it tastes like as long as it's there to replenish what i lost which wasn't pop or beer or wine. Just water.

I also find it disturbing, to me saying that you hate water is like saying that you hate to breath. To each their own, I'm not going to judge anyone but I would think about why you don't enjoy water before trying to figure out a way to spruce it up. Not enjoying water is primarily a mental block and I'd venture to say that you have some other hang ups on non healthy items in your diet (again no judgement just similar behavior).

In any case, my view is that water is for hydration, anything else added is indulgence and you need to reprogram yourself to enjoy water for it's hydration benefits. The easiest way to start is just don't drink anything else... eventually your going to be thirsty enough you won't care what you're drinking. Just remember this a game of self discipline.

All that said, I drink water at room temperature.

I don't like water. Especially tap water. So I use Crystal Light or I will drink green tee. I found a recipe online somewhere for green tea that tastes just like Starbucks. I am a Diet Coke addict. So I've made a deal with myself, for every 2 good things I drink I can have a can of Diet Coke. So I'm still drinking it but way less than before. For now that's good enough for me.

I have made sure that my kids were started on water when they were able to have it. 3 love water. The oldest still doesn't like it but will drink flavored stuff.

you dont need to drink pure water if you dont like it. You only need to make sure you get enough fluids, so juices, cordials, tea, coffee etc are all absolutely fine sources if you prefer

I really like Mio water flavors and the propel water flavor packets. It really helps me get my water in.

samntim

i absolutely hate water too, regardless of fizzy/flavoured etc.....so i only drink tea....the only time i force water is when im at the gym x

Thank goodness I'm not alone! I drink the diet ice tea. At least it's fluid :bigsmile: I'm a bit of a camel, so have never been able to drink much, so something is better than nothing...
