Can I count ice tea w/my water intake needs?

[JulieL]

Is there any reason I can't count some of my drinks consisting of ice tea (no sugar) as part of my 2 liters needed of H20?

Unfortunately, tea has caffeine in it, which is a diuretic. In fact, you should be drinking MORE water to make up for the tea. Sorry!

I think if you could find an herbal tea you like to make iced tea with you could count it as you water intake.
