Create and enjoy healthy, nutritious flavored water with real fruit, herbs, and spices. If you have a BPA-free infusion bottle, you can use that; if not, a glass water pitcher or a large water glass will do the trick! Be sure to use your favorite mineral water bottled in glass, or filtered, contaminant-free water.
RECIPE
- Select your favorite fruit and herb combination. Choose from the suggestions below or create your own blend.
- Chop or break fruit and vegetables, and place in center core of infusion bottle, or directly in pitcher or glass.
- Gently bruise the leaves of your herb(s) of choice and add.
- Add either sparkling or still water, let the flavors infuse for 30 minutes, and enjoy!
Note: If you are infusing a larger batch, you can refrigerate for at least three hours. (Be sure to remove any citrus peels after three hours so the water doesn’t turn bitter.)
