Im realizing that I've actually been chronically dehydrated for a good portion of my adult life and I'm looking to change that. I just don't enjoy drinking water (as silly as that may sound).

Any advice is appreciated.

does sparkling help? cucumber, slice of lemon, orangeslice?

I know a lot of people get those huge bottles and it helps them - just having it with them all the time 🤔

    Generally not really... sparkling water mostly just makes me wish I was drinking normal water or just normal juice. Its kinda just the worst of both worlds.

    I have gotten really into making my own juices recently like oranges and apples and yada yada but even then I dont even think I drink enough. (Plus juice is far more sugary than normal water even if its natural juices)

    You could always water those juices down a bit. So a half glass of juice mixed with a half glass of water. Basically homemade (non-sparkling) Spindrift.

    And it’s also worth combining the sparkling water with the juice! If the sparkling water is just making you crave it anyways. Basically instant soda. Start with 4:1 ratio or to taste and you’ll be surprised after a month or two just how little juice you have to add to the water to taste it. Getting a sodastream with little sugar free flavor squirts made a huge difference to me being able to ditch a childhood sugar addiction.

    I'm craving sparkling water now. I forgot how much I liked that stuff. It's been years
