Notes:
This one is for everyone trying to drink more of that H20 stuff!
In the summer I really liked a Lime Raspberry combo or a Strawberry one. Cucumber is nice, too. I tend to drink alot of tea this time of year, but this is also a nice way to jazz up your water.
Servings: 4
Ingredients:
Water - purified if possible. We have a Pur filter on our tap.
Fruit of your choice (lemons, limes, berries) or cucumbers. Frozen berries work well, too
If you must, a little fruit seltzer or juice - the all natural type if you can
only use about 1/10 this compared to the water.
Directions:
Wash fruit and slice if it\\\'s oranges, lemons, limes.
Add whatever fruit you like to the bottle.
Put water in pitcher or large bottle. Adjust quantities to your bottle size, but leave room for lots of water!
Let it sit a few hours in the fridge or on the counter or overnight. (I\\\'m preferring tap water now b/c of the cold weather)
Drink and enjoy.
Carry it with you wherever you go. Freeze a bottle then take it out before you go out for the day. Drink some when you get up in the morning.
I usually keep it for a day or two and keep adding water then I either eat or toss the fruit. You can also scoop the fruit out after you first make it if you don\\\'t want it sitting in there.
Oranges are nice this time of year. You could also do this with warm water and lemon for a water tea. Or pears and ginger.
Be creative.
You can add a little dash of fruity fizzy water - keep it minimal though as that adds sugar and calories!
