I'm really trying to focus on my water intake. What are some suggestions you do to make your water a little more flavorful?

I've done the traditional lemon/lime/orange wedges....but what are some of your favorites to make boring water exciting?

    I use Mio if absolutely necessary. Otherwise what I do is pour water and ice in a glass. Add Stevia and a fruity tea bag. Normally I use blueberry or a raspberry mix.

    I've seen other people put various fruits in their water. I carry one of those flavored water enhancers that you just squeeze a little bit in the water to add flavor. :bigsmile:

    Wow. That's all I can say.

    That and how can something we cannot live without for more than three days be called boring?

    I don't want to live on this planet anymore. Sorry, honey, nothing personal.

    If you add anything it doesn't count was water

    Mint leaves, cucumber slices, ginger slices.

    I keep a Brita filter pitcher in the fridge. That way I always have cold water whenever I want it. Drinking water will become a habit, you won't need flavorings after awhile

    I make bubbly water in my soda stream and add some lime juice...nice little fizzy cocktail in the evenings in lieu of my vodka tonics (I save those for the weekend now).

    Sliced cucumber is nice. Sliced fruits are also good.

    But if you drink just straight water for a little while (say a week, give or take) I think you'll find water isn't so boring. You may just be so used to sweetened and/or flavored beverages that you've lost a taste for plain water. Try going as long as you can drinking just water :]
