"Water enhancers?"
Just saw an ad for "water enhancer," adds color and flavor to bottled water.

Shit. We've had "water enhancers" for decades.
We call it "Kool-Aid." :eyes:

1. It still is Kool Aid.
"Water enhancers" are sized for 20-ounce bottles of water rather than two-quart pitchers.

12. I guess flat root beer didn't go over so well...
As for your need, try using root beer extract (sold in the spice aisle at any supermarket) with agave syrup.

3. The one that gets me
is the little cartridge that they have to attach to your tap water filter. so you are filtering tap water, then adding stuff to make it unfiltered. I kinda wonder what happens if you run it through a Brita pitcher after that.

5. Just like the movie "Idiocracy"
All of the drinking fountains put out "Brawndo", a Gatorade-like drink. People never drank plain water. I always think of that scene when I see the Britta flavor dispensers.

13. It's like they're not even trying anymore ...
