Water

[badjak]

I'm far over 3 or 4 litre liquid a day in summertime.
Mostly as tea, some as coffee and if needs be, some as ORS (oral rehydration solution).
I like sparkling water as well and normally have a keg with 8 litres of it in the fridge

When working, outside, in the deserts of Nevada, Arizona, and Utah I'd easily drink 2 1/2 gallons on my shift. It would be 100F/38C when we started at 6 AM and we'd leave the roof when it got to 132F/56C somewhere mid afternoon.

Tap water here comes from natural springs, it's clean and reliable.

But I need to drink 2.5 litres a day due to my lack of a colon, so I drink a lot of water and I prefer sparkling water so I have loads of that at home. I do buy that at the store. I drink it without flavorings.

I just like the sensation of sparkling water.

They sell small appliances that carbonate water.

I did that in college. I had a LOT of friends.

I'm about 80 oz in today so far, not including tea, just water.

Much better idea.
I can't help but remember W.C.Fields whenever anyone mentions water.

Holy crap, I am glad you can remember that! A bit before my time since I wasn't born until 1962, but I do vaguely recall some old black and white films...

To be honest, I learned it from a friend who's a movie buff: Mae West and WC Fields.
Great quote though.

All I know is that Mae West was supposed to be some sort of sex symbol and WC Fields was a raging drunk.

When we were cycling around the world, or trying to it was not uncommon for me to get through 10 litres a day. We had a joke when cycling anytime, not just on tour, that I'd drink it, he'd pee it. Despite drinking so much I'd be lucky to need a pit stop 3 times a day.

So far today (its 1pm). I've consumed 330ml coffee, 500ml glass twice, 330ml can of pomegranate juice we bought whilst out, half of the 750ml water bottle i took with me (I never go out without it) and shared a ½l bottle of sparkling spring water. 330 + 1,000 + 330 + 400 + 250

So I guess maybe 2½L so far. I'm about to go and do some gardening so, I'll expect to drink more yet. Followed by ice cream!

If ice cream counts, I've just consumed one, plus another 330ml mug of fruit tea and 500ml glass of coconut water.

No need to worry, it's plastic so it won't break.
