water haters: how to drink more



If you hate the taste of water, here are a few tips, to help you improve your water intake:

Tip #1: fruit/ vegetable flavored water
Get a pitcher, slice fruits (any type at hand) or cucumbers and ginger, pour water, refrigerate overnight, drain. Voila! Water that tastes different.

Tip#2: mint or rose water flavored water
Same process as above, but you don’t need to keep it overnight. Also as an option, you can freeze mint and lemon pieces in ice cubes, and use them later on to flavor your water

Tip#3: herbal infusions

If you sip on herbal infusions that don’t contain tea (even green tea), it is as if you are drinking water. So bonus point!

Tip#4: soups and very juicy fruits

If you don’t like water, you can include to your daily diet soups and juicy fruits such as citrus fruits, watermelon, melon… to increase your fluid intake

Tip#5: jello, 0 sugar water flavorings, 0 sugar popsicles
If all fails you can resort to jello, 0 sugar water flavorings such as Bolero and 0 sugar popsicles. However, this is not the best option. Use it as a strategy on occasions when you really cannot tolerate anything else.
