Add a wedge of lemon to some ice cold water. It's what I drink almost exclusively during the summer.


Actually, my urologist recommended lemon in water as the most ideal drink to avoid kidney stones...benefits of water alone with no sugar or other chemicals...

Sure thing.

Oh wait, you have to be 21 to drink it in the US.

Become an aqua-phile, like being an audiophile but with water. There are a whole bunch of different water brands you can try. EDIT: You can dilute the water with 100% fruit juice.

Personally, the best water I ever had was Yosemite tap water.

EDIT: If you REALLY hate water, then just drink 100% fruit juice that is high in antioxidants, like pomegranate juice (Whole Foods sells "SmartJuice" Pomegranate Tart Cherry Juice the tastes great).

It's very important you look at the INGREDIENT label to ensure it is 100% juice, and that it really is pomegranate or whatever. I don't think drinking juice will make you fat, because it will fill you up so you'll eat less.

If you want something that has ZERO calories and is all natural, Whole Foods sells "Zevia Natural Soda" that is an all natural diet soda. The Rootbeer and Cola flavor taste like any other diet soft drink, and the orange flavor has a creamsicle taste.

Mtn dew flushes me out good. One of the lesser reasons I stopped drinking it.

I'd rather not drink water either. I found Brita filtered water to make it easier to drink though. Diet soft drinks are essentially flavored water.

Besides lemon or lime in water you could try cutting regular 100% fruit juices. I find that if I blend 1/3 of a given juice by volume w/ 2/3 by volume w/ water the taste is good and yet I have cut the calories significantly.

The best way is to use a large pitcher to blend and keep it refrigerated. Best of luck.

I used to drink lots of Evian but Deer Park is cheaper and you can buy it by the Gallon.


Actually, it's Fiji water, not Fuji. If I'm buying bottled water, I buy Fiji. Amazingly good stuff. Otherwise, I just drink filtered tap water. Our local tap water is pretty good, aside from the chlorine taste. A charcoal filter takes care of that easily.
