Everyone knows drinking water and staying hydrated is important, but glass after glass of plain ole’ H2O can get pretty boring.
If you get bored of water, there are other ways to quench your thirst: Infused waters can upgrade the flavor without any nutritional drawbacks.
Some of us walk around throughout the day dehydrated and simply have no clue we are dehydrated. Infusing your water with fruits, vegetables, herbs, any other ingredients you want will motivate you to drink more water. Some people say they don’t drink much water, because it’s too boring or bland. If your water is infused, you most likely will not have this problem anymore.
