Neau water is better than no water

Are you still wandering around with your favourite bottle of designer water carried like a trophy or poking precariously out of your trouser pocket? It's soooooo last year! Maybe you're into waters artificially flavoured with almost every fruit under the sun? Well it's time to get with the programme because the aqua chic are demanding much more in a water than those hackneyed old flavours that have been so popular over the last few years.To attract the beautiful people, today's waters must be enhanced with herbs, chemicals, nutrients, caffeine and even fibre, all promising a host of health benefits not present in good old Eau de Tap. They come with electrolytes, vitamins, or minerals to help you energise, immunise and rejuvenate yourself and even with appetite suppressants to help you lose weight as you rehydrate yourself. They don't even try to keep to the original colour,or lack of it,in the water and so now it is available in a range of colours as well as in a range of flavours.Now this is where I start to get confused. When does it stop being water and assume the identity of a soft drink. How about it you took some water, added artificial colour, artificial flavour, permitted stimulant, put a little gas into it - would you have a New Age water or an Old Age Coke? I really like the product which a Dutch foundation has come up with. It comes in a clear plastic bottle with a simple logo and is called "Neau". There's no water in the bottle but you can fill it from the tap and use it over and over again. It really is water with a purpose because all proceeds are channeled into drinking water projects in countries such as Sudan, Vietnam and Peru. Now that's something worth drinking to!
