Have a friend who has recently taken to ordering hot water with lemon which comes just like hot tea minus the tea bag. And the restaurants charge her nothing. Hope that doesn't catch on. Charging for water is perfectly reasonable. Most of the $2.59 you pay for a glass of Coke is not for the cost of the Coke which is certainly less than a quarter in product. So, for a glass of water, the same as Coke minus the cost of the Coke would seem reasonable, right?
