I normally drink TEA and probably 3-4  glasses a day. Don't know how you can go all day without a drink !

I need to drink more water also.Drink as many ozs as half your body weight. 200 lbs divided  by 2  equals 100 ozs of water .

I drink alot of water, and like ya'll, I love the taste of our well water now that the acid the stockholders had a well company pour down my well is gone. couldn't drink that water for years afterwards. I sometimes get a sulfer smell from it, but not always, and it doesn't change the taste any. with all the meds I hafta take my mouth is dry all the time. I too buy the case of water bottles, they go in the freezer and when I grab one, i'll always have cold water as the ice melts. I drink just as much in winter as I do in summer and I too hafta take Lasix once in awhile and even drinking a lot have still become dehydrated bad enough to have a meat wagon ride to a hospital. PffffT! keep it up Ken, water is a good flusher outter! helps keep yer pipes clean.

Stan,
Bud Lite tastes like water to me. That Is why I brew my own! I usually use RO water in my brewing and that is what we drink for water as well.

We have an artesian well that flows 20 gpm.  I have a cup by the well and drink it all summer.  It comes out of the ground at 54 degrees.  I probably drink 2 to 3 gallons a day in the summer and probably 2 gallons all winter.  Some qater and some as iced tea.

I keep a couple of empty juice bottles with bigger openings on top, in the fridge full of water if I'm walking by or look in the fridge for something I have a cold drink. The bigger opening allows for ice to be added or some ice tea or lemonade mix in summer.

Interesting all the guys on here that have well water. We have a 40' well on our property and it is the best water I've ever tasted. Cool clear water and I test every year. most everyone in the country around here has rural water that's expensive and tastes not so good. Can't drink the water in town either, full of Chlorine and Fluoride to kill the germs. Been here 15 years and has never run dry or ever a change in the quality of the water.

Our well is clear cold and clean but hard as times in '29, will break glass if pour too fast as My Neighbor says!! Tastes great but if run too much water in a day will get a Sulphur odor of it, never a bad taste. Fridge for house was New as we moved in has cool Water dispenser tap, use it all day for refills, Keep a Jug in the Beer Fridge in the shop always keep it topped off. Drink loads of water, likely 4-5 16 oz tumblers a day, still drink a full pot of coffee each morning and Unsweet tea at dinner, beer on occasion, our Doc says I am PLENTY hydrated as the other liquids Tea, Coffee and Beer do not dehydrate as fast as presumed, All liquids flow thru the body and flush out the bad stuff, just none to excess EVEN straight water. Found I was getting weak and a little light headed on the hotter days drinking GALLONS of water, Doc again suggested Sports drinks, preferred the "Zero" types as no added sugars, Electrolytes ARE a needed make up in High Heat as sweat them out faster than can recover. I catch Powerade ZERO on special sales and buy up a bunch save it back just to replenish myself in Summer, and ended that lightheaded fatigue feeling.   Keep at least 10 bottles in that Beer fridge and four to five in house during summer, use one replace with warm one to cool a spare off.
