I can't see any obvious points of degradation or reactivity in the molecular structure, and that's consistent with the fact that it passes through the gut unchanged, is largely unaffected by liver enzymes, and is excreted unchanged, or as a conjugated glucoronide. Only small percentages of metabolites are detected. So, as stomach acid doesn't break it down, and liver enzymes hardly affect it, I think it would be safe to conclude that water won't hurt it.

As it is freely soluble in water, I'd go with that. I can't foresee any problems with stability if kept in the fridge. If the taste is a problem, then I might consider juice or flavorings or such.

I hope this works for you.
