This is one of those tips that sounds cheap, but I've really enjoyed it.

Instead of lemonade, put a drop of lemon (or lemon concentrate) in water. It's most of the taste, but you aren't drinking a tonne of sugar. I use this to add a bit of flavour to my water in WFH.

Edit: fixed typo. Thanks Jeff.

That's a good tip! I get bored of just drinking water all day.

I use a soda maker and do similar. Just a small amount of co2 and limeade.

Is there a typo? Instead of lemonade, use a drop of lemonade?

So, use less lemonade?

Yeah. That's embarrassing. Fixed.

In austria we call it "Soda Zitron" made with fresh lemon and bubblewater and you get it in every restaurant. Very refreshing
