    I buy the powdered vitamin c packets. My fav taste is the ester-c and ener-c brand. I tried emergenC brand and did not like that one. Plus extra vitamin c helps immune system and can give a little pep of energy naturally!

    If you're into nutty flavors, try iced roasted barley tea. You can buy barley tea bags online or in Asian markets. I typically cold brew 2 quarts day, which lasts me about a day and a half. During the summer, I drink barley tea in place of water almost exclusively. It's got zero calories, is caffeine free, and is very refreshing, IMO.

    I personally love water best plain, but I soometimes like to switch things up with Vitamin Zero water. It's pretty good.

    Throw it up in the air and try to catch as much as you can in your mouth.

    I add fresh lemon or lime juice to mine, and got a soda siphon so I can make seltzer at home whenever I want. Definitely worth it!

    Depends on how many of these you are using in a day. Too much Vit C can cause some GI discomfort.

    OP: I add MIO, or fruit infusion. I also like tea of various types.

    I carbonate my water. Very exciting.
