Metromint Spearmint Bottled WaterI’m supposed to drink x glasses of water a day. It’s supposed to be good for me. Its good for weight loss, it replaces the water I lose during my daily activities, etc etc.

The problem is not the drinking of the water though. The problem is that it is boring. It’s not pleasing to the palate after the first 16 fluid ounces, and by 32 I am begging for the water torture to stop.

Until now.

My wife recently introduced me to MetroMint Spearmint water. I must say, I’ve taken on a new view of water as a result.

MetroMint Spearmint is water. Pure. Simple. Flavored with Spearmint. No additives. No sweeteners. No preservatives. Just water and spearmint. It’s just like drinking all of those fluid ounces of water that I had been before, but with a refreshing taste.

So how does MetroMint Spearmint taste? Like chewing spearmint gum and drinking water at the same time. The flavor is not overpowering in the slightest, yet manages to be very refreshing. Spearmint has always been a favorite of mine ever since discovering spearmint leaves candy as a kid (and then spearmint gum as a teenager), and MetroMint Spearmint manages to capture the essence of that memory without the added sweetness.

And it made my breath feel fresher as well. I also felt more alert and refreshed after drinking a serving. I attribute that primarily to the refreshing taste that wakes your taste buds up, without overwhelming them.

For me, MetroMint Spearmint has allowed me to drink more water everyday without the doldrums of having to face yet another bottle of that same old stuff.

Thanks for th is..I’ll h ave to check this out. I have the same issues with water as you do; too much plain old water actually makes me feel sick. And the sweetened flavored water, well, yeah, usually, to make them so they’re no unhealthy, its sweetened with nutrasweet, which has an aftertaste, which is like drinking diet soda, w hich I can’t stand. So yeah, I’ll have to look into this. ;)

momof4sweeties, in California your local Whole Foods Market and Albertson’s should stock Metromint Spearmint. Here’s a full list of stores in various states around the country.
