hokiedelicious Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 I have not been able to find anything about flavored seltzer water. I used to drink Seagrams Lime or Citrus, but the ingredients only say "water, natural flavorings" so I am not sure if it is compliant or not. I am fine with having an occasional unflavored seltzer or sparkling with fresh lime in it, but thought I would ask before I drink one and have to start over.

stillrollin Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 I wish everyone would drink plain water, but flavored seltzer water is acceptable. I think you worded it differntly when I asked. So I limited myself to two flavored sletzers during my W30. The rest was good old plain water, uh, thanks Seriously though, I could see it as a change a pace but why bother with natual flavoring when there is just plain natural water especially during W30? Easy for me I guess, that's all i drink. All day, every day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Tom Denham Posted March 8, 2013 Moderators Share Posted March 8, 2013 I'm trying to be gentler. I keep a bottle of pure lemon juice in my refrigerator door. When I want something "different," I add a splash of lemon juice to my glass of tap water. The last time I had real lemons in the house, I let them spoil before I used them.

Lynnefair Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 A now reformed diet coke addict myself... I like the basic seltzer for a fizz fix once in a while. I surprisingly don't miss the diet coke at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maycat Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 I am curious,Tom, why do you suggest water only? I love sparkling mineral water, and it helps soothe my throat. Is there any reason why it would be a bad thing? I also love to squeeze lemon into my water on a regular basis. Before my Whole30 I didn't drink much soda.

Moderators Tom Denham Posted March 9, 2013 Moderators Share Posted March 9, 2013 I don't suppose flavored water is bad, but I like simple and nothing is simpler than plain water. And I worry when people focus on flavored waters that they are staying too close to processed, artificial foods. Of course, I have drunk black coffee my entire life too. When I started drinking coffee at age 17, milk or cream was not consistently available, so I decided I would drink my coffee black and not worry about it. Later, when I could add any number of flavors, I didn't because black was my way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevie Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 I slice up cucumber, chop mint and strawberries in the water. It marrys to make a nice flavor. I callit spa water. Sometimes I add lemon and orange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kdarosa Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 You can slice lemons/limes etc and freeze them in ice cubes so they won't spoil before you use them. It picks up water if you need a splash of favor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteFYI Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 I really like iced water (or seltzer water) with some apple cider vinegar. I call it poor man's kambucha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteFYI Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 I just kind of splash it in - it's probably something like 2 tablespoons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
