    Water can be any Non Carbonated, No Cafeine, No Sugar beverage. Alot of options have been mentioned.

    Stay away from soda if at all possible or at least just as treat.

    Best of Luck!

    I'd buy some carbonated water - Perriere, etc...there is plain and some that have some flavoring...all 0 calories. Some have sodium but rarely that I've seen.

    your body needs water... you should just drink it!
    if you need some sort of taste put fruit in your brita filter or the water itself.... it'll give it some natural tastes!

    I put lemon juice in water and add a little stevia and it tastes like the best lemonade ever. I also do the same thing with black tea, add a bit of lemon juice and stevia and it tastes like I've got myself a Starbucks black tea lemonade.

    My "treat" drink, while not 100% zero cal is very low, but for whatever reason, I just love it. Perrier. With lime juice. NOT lime flavored Perrier. I buy the plain stuff, chill it, and add about 1 Tbsp of lime juice to a 16 oz bottle. I saw on someone's food blog recently where she puts Perrier in a blender with strawberries, ice, and stevia to make a fizzy, fruity treat. You could try something like that.
    I understand not liking nutrasweet and splenda, but have you tried stevia or xylitol? They're natural subtances, so no chemically flavor. A lot of people tolerate them better. If so, you could buy unsweetened Kool-Aid and use one of those instead of sugar to sweeten it. Good luck!

    I like getting a pitcher of water, slicing a lemon, lime, and orange, adding the slices to the water, and a couple sprigs of mint. It looks beautiful and tastes refreshing!

    Have you tried carbonated water?
    A friend of mine is hooked on it.
    The fizz of pop, but it's water.
    And you can get a few flavors too. Lemon, lime, pomegranate, blueberry.

    I like Propel Zero - I think it has Splenda but I think it tastes great! I'm not a fan of "diet" drinks most of the time, but I like that.

    I love slicing up cucumbers and putting them in a giant jug of water in my fridge. It makes that plain water WAYY more refreshing on a hot summer day :)
