Stay Hydrated with Flavored Water

As the temperatures continue to rise in Arizona, it’s important to make sure you stay hydrated. Our bodies need more water in the heat and when we’re physically active. You can read our Hydration and Beverage Choices page for more information on the importance of hydration.
