I am such a child about drinking water. A total baby. It tastes like dirt to me, but I know, oh how I know, all the benefits of drinking it, and all the evils it will save me from in the juice and soda I drink in it’s place.
I’m also really sensitive to any kind of artificial sweetener. Every time a new one comes out people swear to me that you can’t taste a difference, but I can. Every time. So that makes just switching to a diet drink impossible.
I saw a commercial for this stuff on TV and hoped it might be something that could work for me, and I really liked it. There is a little artificial sweetener taste, but since you just squirt it into water, you can control the balance of flavoring and I can make it light enough to not notice the sweetener while also making it heavy enough to not taste the dirt.
I am also extremely extremely sensitive to the taste of water (one of the things that annoys me most about myself), but I LOVE Glacier water. Have you tried it? The kind they sell in like a vending machine at grocery stores? It has a really pure and sweet taste and none of the grossness of tap water!
My water solution is the Watts four stage reverse osmosis system from Costco. Best thing ever, though it ruins water for me anywhere except at home.
