Another thing to think about re: water is how the heck do they make it safe? The reason drinks like tea and alcohol became popular is because the process of making them kills a lot of germs. In China, drinking hot water is pretty common. (I read a memoir by a Buddhist monk whose older brother left their family farm to go have a hot water cart in the city.)
