The water tasted delicious\u2026with just a fruity, sweet flavour that was so refreshing<!--more-->. I loved it.<\/p>\n<p>Apparently, she meant to use lemons\u2026but she had run out, so she used orange slices. A brilliant idea.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re bored of plain ole water, fruit flavoured waters are just the best thing ever. It\u2019s still water\u2026but it\u2019s got a splash of flavour that keeps you drinking!

These combinations taste better if you let them sit in the pitcher of water overnight. You can even just plop in your water pitcher a couple fruit tea bags!<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re super lazy, you can just add an ounce of pure fruit juice to your water. It\u2019s hardly any extra calories and gives your water a nice essence.<\/p>\n<p>Do what you go to do to keep you drinking!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1483\" title=\"With Water 01\" src=\"https:\/\/www.colourfulpalate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/With-Water-01-439x600.jpg\" alt=\"With Water 01\" width=\"439\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.colourfulpalate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/With-Water-01-439x600.jpg 439w, https:\/\/www.colourfulpalate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/With-Water-01.jpg 791w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 439px) 100vw, 439px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>(love my <a title=\"Stainless steel water bottle\" href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/S6kLsI\" target=\"_blank\">stainless-steel water bottle<\/a> too!)<\/p>\n<p>I love, love, love my water\u2026but I have to admit\u2026since I\u2019ve started this trip I\u2019ve had a hard time remembering to drink lots of water. At home, it\u2019s not really an issue\u2026but traveling it sure seems to be. I love water\u2026so I\u2019m not sure what my problem is. I\u2019m keeping water with me all day long\u2026I just don\u2019t drink it. Dreadful. Starting right now, I\u2019m going to change my ways.<\/p>\n<p>And thank you all for your sweet comments on my last post&#8230;wow, I certainly understand those of you with family far away. Thank goodness for modern technology like Skype, Facebook, and emails that keep us close!<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Do you have a hard time drinking water when you travel?
