Despite the good, the bad, or the ugly of bottled water, I still try to force myself to drink water because I do know that I don't get enough with all the coffee, diet sodas, and other beverages that end up doing more dehydration than good.
The problem is, I don't care much for the (non)taste of plain water. For a while I was adding a little bit of lemon to the water, but that got old. I just tried Water Sensations, which is a clear liquid flavor enhancer for water. The packs are single-serve, have no calories, and come in different flavors.
I tried the Mixed Berry and Lemon flavors. Both added a lot of flavor to a tall glass of water, and I was surprised at how sweet it was. I had naturally assumed that there was no sugar in in since it says "no calorie." However, there is sucralose as a sweetener. I would have preferred to have the flavoring be only a light flavor, the way some of the "flavor-enhanced" bottled waters are.
Still, it didn't taste bad, and in trying the flavors, I did end up making myself drink two very large glasses of water!
