So here are some simple and delicious ways that I spiced up my water- by infusing them with fruits, vegetables and herbs! I stored the water in Mason jars, mostly because they're airtight and I don't have any pitchers with lids. I removed the lime slices after 3-4 hours because the rind started to leave a funny taste in the water.
Pineapple-Blueberry Infused Water. This flavor was really delicious! The blueberries tinted the water a pretty pink hue and the pineapple left sweet notes in every sip.
The Cucumber Lime water was crisp and refreshing! I really liked it.
The blueberry lime was very pretty and pretty tasty as well- be sure to muddle the blueberries for more of their flavor!
The spicy water was super spicy. If I do it again I will definitely cut down on the amount of jalapeno I use and how long I let it soak.
I have gotten some great suggestions for other combinations to try such as strawberry basil, watermelon mint and raspberry lime. What is your favorite flavor of infused water?
these sound delicious. i've been trying to drink more water, and less tea and it's been a struggle. maybe i'll try one of these options. The pineapple blueberry sounds wonderful!
