I spent the first 18 years of my life drinking well water, and nowadays I keep a jug of tap water in the refrigerator. Bottled water always seemed to be an extravagance to me. But yeah, I like water.

I do like water, but if I have pop in the fridge I will more than likely choose that over water. This of course has led me to having to go to the ER last weekend because I was constantly light headed. I was just dehydrated. I've been trying to drink more water this week though. I only drink filtered tap water. I have a large Brita dispenser in my fridge, so when I'm actually drinking water regularly, I have to refill it every few days.

For consumption, water on its own? Not really. I do enjoy add-ins (like Mio), but I generally get my water intake through means other than plain water.

I like it carbonated best but there are some bottled waters, like Fiji Water, that are great on their own.

I know this isn’t how you meant it, but it hasn’t stopped raining here except for one day for over a month. I can’t remember what sun is. I’ll give you my first born, tell you where the gold is, if I had either. Just make it STOP.

I LOVE water. I have an insulated cup I keep with me almost all the time and it's always full. I like coffee, tea, and other things but water is my main go to. I sometimes add a raspberry electrolyte powder to it for some flavor, and actually like the taste of re-mineralized RO water.

Ice water is my absolute favorite. I drink from the five gallon bottles at my house and at work, but my favorite water is at my parents' house. They have a well and a reverse osmosis system, plus some add on that puts minerals back into the water. I love it.

We have a well and to us our water is delicious.I'm more of a water drinker than he is,and I keep several bottles of it in the fridge so I can have it ice cold all the time year round.I do love my coffee and the occasional hot tea...I will have (rarely) a soda,but water is my main drink.

Growing up the two choices of liquids were milk or water. Our parents never kept pop in the house. As a result both my sister and I were used to drinking water. We're both into cardio exercise so we stay hydrated with lots of water. The only difference is I love coffee and she does not.

I suppose if I had "Well Water" readily available that's all I would drink as too. As a kid I spent t a week at a family friends farm . And enjoyed ice cold Well Water daily.

I do like water, but not tap water. I have been trying to drink more so I fill up a container with ice and water and sip on it throughout the day.

Where my cats are
It's taken me a looong time to get used to drinking plain water. I'd guess because it was always city water back in my early years. I always used to feel like it didn't sit good in my stomach and made me feel icky. I know that sounds impossible but when DD was small she wouldn't keep water down either.

Now I do drink it and basically enjoy it. Its just way better if its very cold and either bottled or out of the fridge filter here at home. I still tend to drink it fast though. Like I'll chug a mug of water multiple times a day.

Arrowhead is about the only water I will put in my mouth, unless I'm dying. But, yea, I drink a lot of water.

As someone with kidney disease I do have to drink a lot of regular water - I do like it, but sometimes I get tired of it. Carbonated water is my favourite!

I've been very fortunate that I've had well water all my life.When I worked for WalMart,the store had city water and it wasn't horrid but I got used to bottled water real quick.My sister lived about 25 miles south of me here in MO and she had city water,and it was nasty with sooo much chlorine.
