Try Japanese green tee with a small amount of honey (preferably Manuka honey from New Zealand) over ice.... don't add much tea when you are brewing so that you can achieve your goal of making water taste better not just switching to tea.
Another good recipe is fresh basil and mint leaves broken up in a pitcher of water once again with just a little honey (Manuka) to make the taste smooth. There isn't any caffiene in this and it has antioxidants and vitamins so maybe it would be your best choice.

I know what you mean-years ago when I first started in fitness I didn't like water either. Find a bottled water that you like, they all taste different. This is going to be key as your body really needs it. When you can drink several of these a day then you are ready for another everyday drink that tastes good! Your body needs the water more than a tasty drink.....got that? lol

Water...water...water. That is the best drink for your body.
I know its plain, has no taste, and is boring. But your body needs it. Fortunately, there are many ways to spruce it up. Try adding in a few drops of lemon, lime, or orange juice (from the fruits, or the squeeze bottles). Just a few drops. Or for something refreshing, add a few slices of cucumber to a pitcher of water. If you want a way to cut the weird taste that some tap water has, add a small bit of sugar to the water.
Of course, there's also the many many bottles of flavored water you can buy, Propel and Aquafina are just a few to mention. I don't care for Propel because I think it tastes syrupy. My favorite though is Special K's new flavored water. It comes in 3 different flavors. I've only tried to Lemon so far, but it tastes great without the syrupy taste. You can find it where the Special K cereal bars or diet stuff is sold.

Cut up pieces of lemons, limes and oranges...and put them in your water...the citrus is good for your fat burning and will also carve the plain taste of the water.
Got a Sonic near you, order a large water w/ 2 slices of lemon and lime on the side, and squeeze those suckers in there. You'll get use to. Trust me...
If you decide your going to go with artificial flavors and drinks just keep it at a minimum...Don't do them all the time, it's really not good for you.

One thing that I've found, especially when it's warm out, is adding fresh fruit to my water, ie: cut up strawberries and raspberries (2 tbsp per 12 oz glass of water). It adds a nice little taste to it. If you don't find it gives out enough taste, try squeezing the fruit and then put the juices and the squeeze fruit in the water (or, you can add some sweetner NOT sugar!). good luck

Try good old fashioned tea! There is no calories in plain tea and it is made of water.
