A little bit of context: I'm honestly not a very healthy person and I live a pretty sedentary life, but about a year ago I started trying to at least watch my intake of things like sugar/sodium/etc. I ended up cutting out sodas and really most other drinks entirely, having only bottled or tap water. Now, about a year later, I've tried to branch out and find other drinks that aren't just plain ol' water yet aren't chock full of sugar or some problematic sweetener. I'm back to having a specialty soda or a ginger ale very occasionally; not even because I miss soda, but because I just want something different.

Looking into this kind question already, tons of answers end up suggesting sparkling waters, seltzers, and infused waters. Now normally I'm not a picky eater, but having tried all of these on several occasions, I just don't like them for different reasons. I've also tried kombucha but it sorta turned my stomach, which was a bummer, and I don't know whether or not one should be drinking that constantly due to the bacteria anyway (correct me if I'm wrong, I just don't know). I also tried coconut water a long time ago, and while I didn't like it at the time, I think I'll give it another shot now that I think about it. I've always enjoyed some cold teas or juices, but finding things that I can drink frequently throughout the day without overloading on sugar has been the main challenge.

TL;DR - Aside from water and its spinoffs, what things do you guys like to drink on the regular? Is anyone else picky with sparking/seltz/infused waters but found a kind that you like? Are there any teas or juices you might recommend that don't have a lot of added sugar and such?

Bonus question: Are there any sweeteners you're okay with, or any you'd recommend against having?
