I picked up the habit of drinking water by the jug several years ago. I don’t think there’s much that compares to drinking from a jug of ice cold water. I can drink it at room temperature as well, but I love it when it’s ice cold. The only other thing I like to drink anymore besides water is the occasional oolong or pu-erh tea.
 
Would reccomend any lazyboi lookin to make sure their water intake is good acquire themselves something like this

Four litre capacity, bigass straw, and perfect height to have nuzzled at your chest while you are wasting your youth on the computer. just mindlessly sip and before you know it you will have achieved peak hydration
 
I have had a Brita filter-pitcher for many, many years, and a Sodastream for the last seven years. I'm not sure how anyone could buy bottled water--flat, sparkling, flavoured--when you can tailor the stuff at home. The amount of money I've saved is ridiculous!

I make a strong tea concentrate to add to my water: 4 bags of green tea, 2 hibiscus, 2 mint, juice of one lemon. Keep it in a jar in the fridge and pour a splash into fizzy or flat water. SO good. If you need it sweet, stir some honey into the pot of tea concentrate when it's still warm.
 
I consider myself lucky as the tap water in my apartment is very pleasant tasting. I started drinking more water several months ago and cutting back on the beer and the soda. Now I actually prefer water most of the time, as after the transitional period where I hit the restroom a lot more often, I started to have tons of more energy.

Chlorine and Fluoride boil away when you leave a jug of water in the fridge. What you're tasting is likely that difference.
 
For the fizzy drinkers: Maybe it's new or it's new in my store, but you gotta try the Bubly blueberry-pomegranate flavor. It really bucks the stereotype these drinks only have a hint of flavor; it tastes like light blueberry pancakes and is delicious.

Neither do I, it aggravates me when someone complains about the taste, it's supposed to be swallowed not savored like some flavorful drink. Although fridge water sometines has a funny taste to it. I still prefer to be drinking water over the alternative.

You mean you don't enjoy the clean hydrating feeling of cold water on your tongue? It's like a hard reset for your mouth when eating.

I don't mind it, I just knew a few ladies that refused to drink it because they complained they hated the taste.
 
I really need to drink water more often, I'm so to drinking kiwi strawberry water. I need to cut it with the sweet stuff.

Hard reset, I like that. It's literally like a palate cleanser to me now, seeing as I had surgery involving my palate recently. I've been drinking over 10 cups a day for the past several weeks to help keep my mouth clean. Every few bites or sips I'll have water. I'm going to make myself keep up the habit even after I'm healed. Only downside is I feel like peeing more...

I find that I have a bad habit that, if I don't have water with reaching distance, I just won't drink because I don't think about it. If I have a bottle or an insulated mug at my desk it's much easier. I guess I'm just lazy.

Sure its sparkling but this is pretty good if you're not into soda or wasting a bunch on la croix like some loser
I also usually prefer cold flat water tho
 
The water out here was the sweetest in the world, until everyone sold their mineral rights. (They kind of had to, because if all your neighbors took the money and you didn't, you'd end up with nothing and no recourse, anyway.) Well, the water table is now pretty messed up, and it tastes like sulfur all over the valley. Large jugs of water are what most people use as potable. Why the hell not just put a filter on your kitchen faucet? You can use the regular water for washing dishes, and the filtered for drinking/cooking? People who buy water make no sense.
