What to drink?

K..I've been drinking more water lately than ever before which is great, I already feel better and more energized with less crap in my system. But water gets soooo boring! What do/can you folks recommend for alternative hydration? I'm lactose intolerant (newly discovered) so I can't even have skim milk and soy milk does sit well lol. I'm thinking some sort of fruit juice. The last couple weeks I've been getting unsweeted store bought stuff and cutting it 50/50 with water. Any other alternatives? I really love Iced Tea, but sugar is so high in it. Crystal Light?

Try putting fresh lemon in your water; or a lime.

4C has iced tea packets that you can carry with you on the fly. It comes in Raspberry, Lemon, Peach, Green Tea + Antioxidants and Lemon/Honey, and Decaf Lemon. All can be added to bottled water.

I love the decaf lemon.
If you want more info; let me know.

I usually just stick to water or green tea. I stopped drinking juices because they were high in sugar. I used to use Crystal Light too but I'd rather stay away from aspertame. You could always buy the juices and just add 1 or 2 shots to the water like you would alcohol, that way you aren't getting a whole glass full of sugar, but you are still adding a little flavour.

Try using stevia. That's what I drink with my cold green tea.
