There’s nothing like picking up a glass of water, expecting a nice refreshing drink, only to find it tastes ‘dirty’, ‘dusty’, ‘flat’, or tastes sort of like the chemicals it was treated with. A way to help that, and to give yourself a happy boost is to use flavored powdered drink mixes to boost the flavor!
