I've seen people use berries or citrus slices to flavor the water, so you can cut up a grapefruit and drink that all day.
Instead of waiting for the infuser, wouldn't it make more sense to cut up fruit (and/or vegetables) put it into a blender, then strain the juice into a jug of water?
Yes you would be ingesting more calories, but not that much and I would think the flavor would be stronger. Another benefit is that you'd be getting more vitamins in the process.

Depends on if you want a watery smoothie or just flavored water. For me, adding few lemon and lime slices to a pitcher of water adds enough flavor without having to mess with blending and straining anything. If that's what you want to do, then go for it.
I flavor my water with flavored seltzer -- about a 1:6 ratio. I'm sure it's not ideal, but it's the best way I've found to drink lots of water for me. And TONS of ice.
I drink a lot of water and one way I like to drink it is with Lemon oil (good quality essential oil) . I use about 5 drops in a 24 oz container and add a tiny bit of Stevia and ice water.
I'm just the opposite of you. I like room temperature water if I have to drink a whole glass down unless it's a hot summer day, and I don't like buying bottled water.
Flavored water with tea isn't my "cup of tea" either. I've tried a few different kinds of fruity ones... nope.
I drink ONLY room temp water, avoid cold drinks..so I guess you drink tap water which contains some chemicals I don't want to drink. Like chlorine and fluorides. I buy spring or distilled water.

I drink 80% of my daily water room temp as well
The bottle water is only cold for the 1st 10min it comes out of the fridge and I usually have a couple bottles spread out around the house and take a swig when I get the urge - thirst.
I am lucky that my western WA city has wonderful tap water that tastes exact same as the bottled spring water ( I honestly cannot tell the difference )
I think its weird that a human could not like the taste of water ? Its so natural and something we have been drinking for a million years.
Could be that your WA city does not fluoridate. I resent the H out of that practice and know Portland rejects this action. CA ended up pushing this toxin in our city waters a few yrs back...Many fought it and many are just asleep about most actions the govt does. I drink water thru the day and not just when thirsty, if I waited till then, I'd never drink water.

We live in a rural area and have well water, so we don't have the chlorine and floride. Yes, ice cold water makes my teeth and stomach hurt.
Today I was grocery shopping and saw a man with about 6 cases of bottled water in his cart.(must have been a sale) So much plastic. I know that they recycle plastic but I wonder if most of it gets recycled? I hope so but I do know I see lots of discarded bottles along the side of the road from slobs who can't be bothered. Peeves me right off!
We have to pick our battles and I don't like plastic either but detest drinking fluoridated water more..so I pick what I feel is best for me. You are fortunate to have well water.
