There’s a reason why your mom keeps telling you to drink more water. Not only is it just better than drinking soda or coffee, water plays a vital role in digestion, blood circulation, absorption of nutrients and the elimination of toxins.

Wanna make drinking it way less boring? Enter: These insta worthy fruit-infused drinks. They'll put your average water bottle to shame. Not to mention they're packed with a natural sweetener. According to the Wellness Mama blog, “Fruit infused waters contain much of the flavor (or more) of fruit juices, without the sugar, making it easier to drink more.” Yum!
