"That leaves roughly two liters of fluids daily for women and three for men, says Kavouras. That translates to about 68 ounces and 101 ounces from beverages. "

Your body has an excellent mechanism for keeping you hydrated, which is thirst. If you drink water (not soda, coffee, tea, or anything else) when you’re thirsty, you’ll be fine.
Most people don’t drink 68-101 oz of liquid a day, but you also get a surprising amount of water from food. Cooked chicken breast is 65% water, for example. Fruit and many vegetables are even more.
Eating water is also better for overall hydration. Drinking more than you need just results in peeing it out and possibly unbalancing electrolytes.

No, don't ditch the water bottle.
