You all gave me your thoughts about the Clear American Sparkling Water
but what do you think about Nestle Pure Life Splash flavored water? :indifferent:
This is also a Zero Calorie drink; Contains no juice; & is NOT sparkling unlike the Clear Water brand.
Would you say its BAD or a good alternative when I want some FLAVOR in my life aha ( I drink alot of water )

Sounds good to me. However, someone, somewhere will get upset by artificial sweeteners and will say don't drink it. On the other hand the millions of people who don't have a problem with artificial sweeteners will say drink away. It's up to you and your body what you put it in it. What other people think is only relevant to them.0

I love this stuff. Expensive to drink only that, though.0
-
Just add a little bit of juice to tap water (assuming tap water is safe where you live). No point in spending money on fashion water.
I normally add a bit of cranberry juice, or squeeze some lime.0 -
I am same, I cant drink plain water its horrible.
Try ice cold water with fresh lemons and ice.0 -
i add chunks of lemon to my water occ.0

I drink the carbinated flavor water too. It beats soda. I say drink away. However I don't drink the other flavor water if there is sodium in it. That will bloat you. Try to stay away from any water that say it has a small amount of sodium in it.0

I like Vitamin Water Zero and also Propel Fitness Water, but agree it gets very pricey to drink this exclusively. I was lucky to find 8 oz. bottles of Propel at Big Lots last week....only $4.50 for a 12 pack. But Vitamin Water is $17 a case at my Kroger. CRAZY! They do have a store brand that is cheaper, but still expensive when you figure you want to buy a dozen. You can freeze 100% juice in ice cube trays and throw one into a glass of water. Same effect, lots cheaper.0

Lemon or lime squeezed into water. Cheap and delicious.0

I dont do flavored water much. if its toooo sweet it triggers my sweet tooth and then i have to fight with myself to stay away from something i probably shouldnt have. Try some of the suggestions above and add some lemon or a splash of juice.0

I prefer Hint.0

I love plain, ice cold water. Flavored water almost always tastes artificial or odd to me... I dunno, maybe my taste buds are weird but I don't like most flavored waters. I occasionally treat myself to some coconut water, because I think it tastes very natural and yummy.
Nothing beats the purity and cleansing feeling of plain ice water (to me).0 -
I can't stand to drink plain water either. I use Mio quite a lot. I know that the artificial flavors and sweeteners are not the greatest thing for you, but I use just enough to add a little flavor and think it's better than the 2-3 diet sodas I used to drink every day. Adding a little 100% fruit juice, as others suggest, is also a good option and one that I use from time to time.0

I am hooked on Vita Rain from Costco. 24 20oz bottles is about $12. Sometimes on sale for $10.0
-
just get crystal light or mio . and it is great for you . no calories of anything0
-
it isn't really any different than diet soda in my eyes. Why not just water?0
-
I like it. I tend to drink the fizzy ones though, they just seem more interesting to me, and if I want flavoured still water I have a bottle of lemon juice in the cupboard and use that with tap water.
Some people don't like the sweeteners/artificial flavour/sodium/whatever from flavoured water. But it's water all the same. If you like it, I would say go for it. My nearest supermarket has their own brand, and you can buy 4 1l bottles for £1.50, which will last me about a week as I drink a lot of different things too, so you don't necessarily have to pay loads for them to taste nice!0 -
It's fine. You are overthinking this, and getting caught up in minute details.0

I love flavoured water! I don't mind plain water either though it just gets a bit boring drinking it all the time so I have some flavoured water every now and again. Always remember to check how many sweeteners and things are added to it though.0
