Potlucks are sacred in the AV:

…and sometimes tastes like tap water with a backstory.

If the punch tastes off, it’s usually not the recipe. It’s the water and ice.

Make ice with filtered water
This is the #1 upgrade with the least effort.
Fill the drink dispenser from a pitcher/countertop filter
No need to announce it. Just do it.
Use clean glassware
Glass can hold odors if the dishwasher has buildup.
Bonus move: bring your own coffee/tea water
People notice when it tastes better—even if they don’t say it.

👉 Take the Water Health Check
👉 Book a Water Health Consult to upgrade your home’s “everyday water.”
