    What about herbal teas? I drink a lot of tea starting in the fall, all through winter. I use leaf tea and have one of those appliances that brews it. During the day, I drink green tea, and at night, I drink roobios.

    I'm a big herbal tea drinker and I count them towards my water intake. Green and white teas are not herbal however.

    I track water because I just recently had a double lung transplant and the very aggressive medications that I have to take for the rest of my lifetime are very harsh on the kidneys, so my doctors are pretty adamant that I drink 80 oz. of water a day to help flush my kidneys.
