A Flavored Water I Finally Like.

CrazyKittyLvr2 — Sat, 11 Jan 2020 04:45:51 GMT

I don't drink nearly enough water. I tried putting in lemon, the infuser pitchers, Cyrstal light etc.

DD brought home a couple bottles of bottled water called hint. She got cherry and a crisp apple. It's a subtle flavoring, no aftertaste, no sugar. They have a lot of different flavors. Right now I'm drinking a mango and grapefruit.

I have had more water since finding it than I have had in weeks.

If you don't drink enough you might want to at least give this a try.

@CrazyKittyLvr2 -

Those actually sound good!

I used to hate drinking water but you know what got me drinking it?

My bil would put lots of ice cubes in and swirl it around then drink and look like it was the most delectable thing ever!

So now thanks to him I put in lots of ice and I don't know why but it just tastes so crystally cold and good!

I love Hint! I've tried almost all of the flavors and they have all been good. Try the peppermint and blackberry...so good! They just released a new flavor called Clementine.

I tried the lemon one last week in my ongoing search for a flavored water that isn't sparkling. I love Wegmans lemon Wonder Water but no Wegmans in New Mexico so I've been searching for a good copy since we moved here.

I didn't like Hint either. I thought it had a slightly oily texture/flavor to it so my hunt continues. UGH.

mr henny orders by the case from their website.

He gets notices of their new flavors. He drinks several bottles a day.

I am a tejava addict.

I love flavored sparkling water. No sugar, just carbonated water and natural flavor. Lemon or lime are my favorite. The carbonation helps quench my thirst.

I love Hint!!! My favorite is peach. I used to drink O Water which is also unsweetened with no fizz but they stopped carrying it in my area.

Since I would need 5 bottles a day, that is very expensive. Better to make your own infusions. I have several glass drinking bottles that are dishwasher safe too.

I use Milo, found most everywhere. I use 7 squirts in a regular Dazani water bottle and love it. They have all flavors, and each things gives quite a few drinks. I bought my last from Amazon.

Me too. I'm going back to my soda stream because I do not like all the waste involved in those plastic bottles. I think the world is in crisis mode with plastic bottles that will never in a million years be recycled because there are just too many of them.

I had a soda stream and it pooped out, so I went back to buying bottled sparkling water. But I am done with that now.

Sorry this was off topic, but it's something for the seltzer/sparkling water people to consider.

Yes, indeed. It's very good indeed for those who want just a hint of fruit flavor. The Crystal Light drops work for me. Easy to keep one in my bag and one on the counter. It helps me drink more water and it helped me all but cut out sodas. I'm down to 2 Sugar Free Cokes a week now....down from 2 a day.

I dont like Hint. There is hardly any flavor to it; not worth the money.

@faeriemoon

I buy my sparkling water in cans. The store brand is about $3 for a 12-pack. And then I recycle the cans.

I agree with the Hint water just not enough flavor and try to stay away from the plastic bottles.

Years ago tried the Crystal Light liked but heard about the chemicals in them and started to get headaches when drinking them.

Heard on a radio station from a pharmacist many years ago that he only allows his family to use TRUE LEMON PRODUCTS,so found them on Amazon and that is my go to for drinking plain water from my Brita for years now.

Made with only simple & clean ingredients,no artificial sweeteners,flavors 0 to 10 calories per packet.Comes in many flavors like lemon,lime,orange,grapefruit these are unsweetened ,but also have a variety of lemonades,limeades,orangeades and new to the line True Lemon Engery packets in different flavors also have shakers & spice blends.

Costco carries a great sparkling water with fruit flavors in it....but it is sold in cans and I don’t do aluminum. DD gave me some in a glass with ice and I told her how good it was. Wish they would sell it in bottles. I have not seen Hunt here but will look for it now.

I have a friend who drinks this. She said if you’re going to drink it, make friends with the idea of single use plastic.

Another friend has a soda stream, just for the bubbles. She doesn’t use flavors.

One of the biggest villains in the plastic/ocean pollution has to be the cruiselines! It always unnerves me when we go to the beach to see plastic cups, bottles, etc. with a cruise line logo or name on them. I don’t think it is just passengers tossing things overboard. I think it is also lazy employees who may dump garbage instead of properly handle it per the rules. The cruiselines should be held accountable. They make their money because of the oceans...you would think they would want to protect it!

@HLP If you use a lot of Milo, you might want to check out the ingredients. Not only does it have the usual artificial sweeteners, it also has some lesser known sweetening ingredients that are believed to be carcinogenic.

I used it when I was doing WW's. Right now I'm just doing plain water again, and occasionally some coffee or tea sweetened with Monk Fruit sweetener.
