Does A Glass Of Sweet Tea Count Towards The Portion Of My Daily Water Intake?

It s said you should drink 64 ounces of water per day, which equates to eight 8 ounces glasses of water. My question is this:What if only drink 7 glasses of pure water and 1 glass of sweet tea. Would that still equal out too 64 ounces of water, since sweet tea has water in it? If not does the glass of sweet tea count towards any portion of my daily water intake and if so how much. I have the same question for other liquids like soda, etc......

Hello,

Don't worry any liquids your taking like juices, or coconut water or green tea may contain water 99% so you can count them. But the intake may vary from season to season, depending upon the cardiac or renal functions.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
