Looks like someone has had a change of heart.

After letting people know recently that she doesn’t drink water, Yung Miami, one half of rap group City Girls, decided to give it a try after all.

It all started last week when the 24-year-old took fans into her fridge and emphatically shared that she doesn’t like water. Instead, she said her drinks of choice are Simply Tropical (part of the Simply brand of juices), pineapple Fanta soda (she was offended to find the orange kind in her refrigerator) and smoothies from the brand Bolton Farms.

“I drink soda,” she said. “I drink these little smoothies or whatever the f–k this is. I don’t drink water.”

People were quite critical about her drinking habits, which she probably wasn’t expecting. Those who say they don’t drink water are often pretty proud about it until other people run down the reasons why that isn’t a good idea:

With everyone giving her a hard time, the rapper decided to give some purified, high-quality H20 a try. She admitted it wasn’t so bad. In fact, she said it was “too good.”

In another short clip holding the bottle she says, “Some cold, ice cold water. It’s too good.”

And she continued to share photos, via her IG Stories, of herself with water over the weekend. She’s likely trolling us, but we’ll take it:

No one is expecting the rapper to be the poster child for Poland Spring or Fiji at this point, but we’re just glad to see her giving it a try. Maybe that will encourage her fans and other people to drink more water, especially since a recent study found that 77 percent of people surveyed by filtered water system provider, Quench, said they don’t think they drink enough water. The biggest barrier in having enough being due to a lack of time to get up and get some, particularly during the work day. So while people are coming for Yung Miami, have you had a glass of water today?
