so what's your opinion on flavored water? hate it or love it? personally i love it beacause drinking normal water can be a bit dull for me sometimes, and making it flavored gives me more reason to drink.

If its flavored, its no longer water, its juice. If its not red or purple or blue or whatever, then its juice that they've taken the color out of so they can market it as water and charge you more.

I actually hate it but that's just me. And I totally agree with Talledega. It's no longer water.. it's yuppie juice.

If you ask me my oppinion of what flavor Water should have, I'd say iced.
I mean why drink water if you're just going to put all this other stuff in it? At that point wouldn't it be cheaper to buy a can/jar/whatever those things are supposed to be of Kool-Aid instead? I mean that'd be no different, it's just flavoring your water.

In terms of if it's healthier actually it's not. Your body needs a certain amount of just "water" without the added components of sugar/flavoring. Not enough water can lead to a lot of kidney problems in the future including stones among other things.

Well, it's better than soft drinks or, even worse, alcohol.
I used to drink it in place of soda until I found out the aspertain actually kills your body's ability to burn fat temporarily, so now I just drink less soda and drink more milk and water in its place.
As for regular water, I can only drink it super cold when I'm super thirsty.
A facet filter would be nice.
