Your Foolproof Method to Staying Hydrated!

Drinking water is good for us, right? But let's be honest, not nearly as enjoyable as our morning latte, fizzy soda or a cocktail when we're out. I know it's good for me, but it's just a little, well, boring. So I did a little research and a little trial and error to see if there was a way make water a little more exciting without compromising all the benefits. Here were my favorite low or no calorie additions to water: 
  • Squeeze a sliced orange into your water glass and add a teaspoon of vanilla extract-- almost the taste of an Orange Popsicle!
  • Herbal tea  is a great option, especially green or mint tea, you can try it hot or try it iced
  • Using an "infuser" try sliced strawberries with a dash of raw sugar in your water for a sweet, natural juice-like taste. 
  • Now this one I haven't tried, but I've heard that using ginger in your drinking water not only is a nice refreshing addition, but also helps with nausea and headaches
These are just a few of my favorites that I have tried. What do you do to dress up your water?
