drinking water

okay so we all know we should be drinking oodles of water every day, and even more if you train a lot, but does that water absolutely have to be plain water?

You can pretty much drink whatever you want in it. Just keep the additions sugar free like you have said and you should be fine. Also, maybe keep an eye on anyone's that contain fructose.
