Water….The Many Faces

Wassertropfen, Tropfen, Water Drop

So here we are…

Here are some personal suggestions to making that plain ol’ water a bit more exciting…

First when I AM drinking plain water I try to use a straw as it just seems to go down easier.

But sometimes I enjoy a bit of flavor in my water…

without added sugar or too many calories…

Here is what I do…

I add these to my ice water

  • Lemon
  • lemon with a bit of stevia
  • lime
  • lemon & lime with a bit of stevia
  • fresh cranberries
  • fresh cranberries and orange slices
  • fresh mint leaves
  • fresh mint & sweet basil leaves
  • raspberries(I use frozen) & lime slices
  • sliced strawberries
  • cucumber & fresh mint

I add these to my HOT water…

  • lemon
  • cranberry
  • mint leaves
  • green tea bag

Water is essential for so many reasons.

Key here enjoying it. It truly should not be a chore or force it when there are many ways we still gain all the benefits of  drinking the liquid gold yet do not sabotage our efforts of gaining our health.


So now it is YOUR turn…what are your favorite ways to get your water in each day?
