Does drinking ice tea count towards daily water intake?

geoginny

Oh, please say yes...

I count it when it is unsweetened!

Calorie free? Then I say yes... but try to do as much plain old boring water as you can too. :flowerforyou:

If it's got no calories I don't see why not since it's mostly water anyway.

I only count water as water

I count ice tea and hot tea, even if it is lightly sweetened. I'm not a "water only" counter, that doesn't work for me.

I would also add caffiene free to that. I drink caffeine free Lemon Zinger, and Ginger tea and count that as my water.

I counts toward mine. If not , I'd only be severely dehydrated because it's all drink before leaving work most days.

I read somewhere (don't remember where so I can't cite it) that anything that isn't plain water counts as half. So if you drink 16 oz of unsweet tea/diet soda/etc, it would count as one 8 oz serving. Thats the way I always count it.
