So, I bought a bottle of all natural coconut water by a company called "Zico" Should i count that toward my water intake or should i just count it as a regular beverage? I already added it to my diary, I would think it would be a regular beverage since coconut water isn't technically pure water? Haha sorry this is such a dumb question, just curious!

    If it contains more than 20 cals per serving (condiments, vitamin waters etc) I say track it as food not by water. :)

    i only count water as water... even if something should be considered a water beverage instead of a standard thing, its better just to drink your normal water plus the water beverage to get extra water in your system, instead of wondering if u got enough. you get water form fruits, veggies, rice, noodles, and all sorts of things, but you dont see people tracking that in their water intake or saying to themselves "well i had that cucumber earlier so now i dont have to drink all my water today"..
