Water

08/06/2005

The older I get, the more I like water. And it is supposed to be good for a person. The thing that discourages me is that water doesn't always taste the same. Especially when one travels.

And bottled water, even the same brand of bottled water, can taste different from one location to another.

I offer this little tip to others out there who want some consistancy in taste from all those glasses (or bottles) of water they may down in a day.

For each 16 - 20 ounces of water, add 3 drops of lemon juice. I keep one of those plastic lemons of reconstituted lemon juice in the refrigerator shelf and drip, drip, drip the drops to each large glass of water I pour.

It does not taste like lemon, but somehow it smooths out the flavor so water tastes like water, wherever we are.
