How can I drink more water without, well, drinking water?!


Question: How can I drink more water without, well, drinking water?
I'm looking for something that is close to water. I get dehydrated, and I don't drink a lot of water. Water is just... So boring! I can finish a glass of soda in a few minutes, but I rarely ever finish a glass of water without it getting warm or me spilling it. What is drink closest to water that I can drink, that just tastes a little more interesting than water?

Eat lots of lettuce, mushrooms and other vegetables. These have incredible amounts of water in them and your question asked how to get water without drinking it. Do people not read the Q's?



I have the same problem. I hate water. I recently had to start drinking it more. So.. What I do is I cut up some lemons and limes and fill a jug of water with the lemons and limes and let it sit in the fridge. This turns it into a limey lemony water experience instead of just plain boring water.

Coke also has a new line of soda waters that they sell Frescas I believe they're called. They have different flavors and are technically better then drinking no water or just soda all the time.

But let me remind you that as much as it sucks getting over after 10 days of no soda you'll get over it. Soda is so bad for us and just kills our kidneys.



You could try buying flavoured waters... or fizzy water that you could mix with fruit juice or squash. Or you could add a twist of lemon or lime to water?
In winter, I really like to have hot water with lemon and honey.
Nothing beats plain water, but I think these options are better than not keeping hydrated!

I just thought of another one... put a jug of water in the fridge the night before with basil and strawberries in it. It tastes amazing the next day. You could infuse anything in it (mint and lemon etc), but strawberries and basil tastes great.

Also - herbal teas or fruit teas are good.



I have the same problem too. I drink it in the form of unsweetened iced tea, sometimes with a slice of lemon if I have it. On a good day I can drink 2 quarts. Speaking of which, I need to brew another batch today.



Put a slice of lemon or lime in the water, apparently it makes it ok. Oh and lots of ice makes it good too.



Vitamin water otherwise known as smartwater lol :]

you can drink water without drinking water by making juice for example orange juice, lemonade.



Try carbonated water. The effervescence effect may be the answer to your quest.

In Poland we call it 'gas water".
