My absolute favorite is approx. a 25% cranberry/75% distilled water mix, sometimes with green tea, sometimes not. Beside loving the taste of cranberries, (drinking it for over two decades) I never have any sort of urinary issues, never stones, natural, no chemicals induced, no fat, the natural sugar content is very, very low and I don't sweeten it. We use distilled water due to not liking the taste of our tap water....don't have to worry about chemicals......
I also love it (my cran/tea/water mix) mixed again 50/50% with a favorite beer. That way, I can sip a tasty adult beverage w/o the negative baggage....now, at this age I only have a maximum of 3 beers/mixed in an evening. I know that may sound wimpy to the younger folks and harder drinkers, but it satisfies my desire for an alcohol "taste" with little harm to my body. I know there is great debate about how much alcohol is too much (some say any, some say a little, some say more), but this works for me!!
From a business standpoint, what a winner for the water sellers, they suck it out of the aquifer (actually it runs out of the aquifer) here in Florida by the millions of gallons basically for free, Floridians get a few low end jobs, the company and shareholders make a fortune, no one discusses their gigantic waste output, and life goes on.

From a physiological point of view the body can process 1 drink (1 beer-1 shot of whisky or 6 oz of wine) every hour. More and you can't pass a DUI test.
