Ways to improve the taste of water?

I really dislike water, I don’t know if its just me being weird but I think it has a weird taste.
Yes I know most of you will be like water doesn’t have a taste but it does to me.
The problem is, I want to like it because I want to attempt to drink the recommended daily amount. At the moment all I do is drink soft drinks, with the odd drinks of milk.
I don’t want to add anything to the water, no flavorings or anything, I want it to be pure.
I think that ice cold water tastes a lot better than room temperature or warm. But I don’t like it enough to think, oh I’m thirsty I want to drink some water.
It’s pretty much ‘Oh I’m thirsty lets grab a can of coke’
I know the health benefits of water, and I want to be able to drink it because I want it. At the moment it’s me drinking it because I’m forcing myself to.
I was thinking maybe I could buy a water filter in attempt to make the water taste better.
What do you reckon?
What can I do to make it taste better and to get myself to actually want to drink it?

There is talk of banning the sale of bottled water in some places, but is it really all that bad for the environment? They say it’s all about the plastic waste and the impact of transportation on global climate change, but what about bottled soft drinks? Milk in plastic containers? What about the styrofoam that meat is packaged with? It’s a lot worse for the environment than plastic because of the gases ceated during the manufacturing process. It’s hard to think of any product that isn’t wrapped in plactic. What is the big deal about bottled water?

how do you feel about the bottled water ban?




Is it smart? More people drink water when it is bottled. It is so much easier to grab a bottle of water instead of a carbonated beverage when you have that option. What about soft drinks, why not ban it instead? Afterall the ban is mainly focusing on the manufacturing of the bottles and its effect on the environment. Soft drink bottles go through the same process and have the same effect on the environment. Only water is better for you.
it was on the news and internet.

I was just reading where a study was made and they found that 40 per cent of the drinking water in bottles is right outy of the tap. Only 20 percent was actually purafied. Most is not as purafied as what is used in beer and soft drinks in bottles and cans.
I haven’t been able to figyure out if this study is actually a qualified study or not. I do have a filter and altraviolet purafier but am not sure it is as good as they clame. The water here is quite bad though.

I’m not a water drinker. I usually like to drink anything with color and taste (coffee, juice, tea but not soda (or soft drinks)). Since water is very important for our body, I’m planning to include carbonated water (with flavors) as part of my meal or just plain water substitute.

Bottle Water – Boiled/Filtered Water (Dasani)?




Is drinking bottled water bad for you? More specifically Dasani made by the Coca Cola company. I’m strictly avoiding all soft drinks including things like Minute Maid and Five Alive made by Pepsi, does anyone know if they might add suspicious substances into bottle water like caffeine to create addiction?

There are many known benefits of water, I know this. My question is, when drinking other drinks (such as soft drinks [soda], Gatorade, soup, milk, ice-tea, beer, etc) will I get the same effects of drinking water alone?
