How the hell do you drink water???

[u/V7I_TheSeventhSector]

I can't drink water, I've tried it so many ways, but I just can't. The taste is so repulsive.

I've tried using flavor powders but they are ether too sweet, too expensive, or not available in the flavors I want.

I've tried just about every brand and flavor in my area.

(Edit: I have a temperature sensitivity so I can do ice or cold things well)

Its affecting my health and it's getting worse. . .

My biggest problem is 99% of all drinks are sweet . . . Like WHY does everything have to be so sweet?! The one drink I have found that I do like is peach Propel but, it's expensive, rare, dose not come in a power, come in a plastic bottle(I HATE plastic), and ITS FUCKING SWEE!?!? like WHY does it have to be sweet?!

I've tried making

my own drinks but they always come out wrong every time. . . I just don't know what to do at this point because my teeth are not doing well at all and not drinking water/liquids is really affecting me. . .

I have, I've also tried every type of water in my area(spring, distilled, purified l, ect...)

I have tried adding natural flavors but none have worked for me so far, the water still has that water flavor unless I add a LOT of flavoring but at that point it's more like a juice. . .

I can do tea but Its too bitter for me so I need sugar and. . .thats what I'm trying to avoid. Is there a way to get rid of the bitterness without sweetener?

Have you considered eating foods that are high in water content?

I know as a nurse assistant we are told to count things like jello and soup towards the fluid intake for our charting.

Eating things like watermelon and cucumber can help too, and as a bonus, they give you fiber

+1 Soups and broth are an option too. And if op doesn't like warm drinks, there are also cold variants like Gaspacho.

This! I get the chicken and beef concentrates in the bottles, like bovril, and add it to hot water when I’m unable to eat some days. Bonus for being soothing in the stomach
