It is impossible to survive without water and it is normally recommended to consume about 8-10 glasses of it per day. The bottom line is that water is to life as soul is to body. However, sometimes, the taste of water can become boring and stale. That is the moment, when people start looking for alternatives, which normally come in the form of artificial juices and sweeteners, energy drinks, frizzy drinks and in some cases beer (the primary reason being that this beverage is more expensive than a water bottle in most of the countries). Most of these alternatives, if not all, are laced with calories and harmful chemicals and also don’t have the desired effect as far as quenching the thirst is concerned (temporary action).

There can be numerous ways through which water can be flavoured naturally, and some of the most famous ones have been discussed in this article.
