    Is flavored water allowed?

    Hey
    I was just wondering if it's ok to use water flavoring packets in my water? I love water, but sometimes I get tired of just plain water :P

    No flavor of any kind is ever allowed. Don't do it. Stop before it's too late! Holy Crap!

    No, I'm afraid it has been banned due to the intolerance it presents to just plain water.

    If you put a flavor into water it is no longer water.

    I'm afraid it's no longer a flavoring packet either. If you're not careful, a big red pitcher of the Frankenstein concoction you've made will come alive and bust thru walls. Crash Bang Boom Bam

    I put a wedge of Lemon or Tangerine, with the peel, and freeze it in a Rubber Maid flip top bottle. Makes good flavored water. I've used Ideal sugar substitute on occasion.

    I agree; sometimes plain water gets tiring after a while. But I like to stay hydrated so what I do is to flavor my plain water with bourbon. It's much easier to drink a lot of it that way - and I think it's important to drink enough water. Especially in hot weather - but I do it all the time - just to be on the safe side.

    Water? Drink it? Do you know what fish do in it? At least PHM is using disinfectant. That is one smart move.

    Pretty sure, if you look at the concentrations involved, all beverages should be considered 'flavored water'.
