Infused Water, Yum!!

I’ve been experimenting with Infused waters lately.  Infused water is a refreshing drink that may contain sliced fruit, vegetables, and/or herbs.  You can find pitchers and water bottles that contain infusers, or you can use a normal pitcher What a delightful way “fancify” an already delicious beverage!

The following are some delicious infusion mixes, and you can experiment with your own!

Lemon and Fresh Rosemary
            One thinly sliced lemon with 4-5 sprigs of rosemary (slightly rub the rosemary between your fingers to release the oils)

Lemon and Triple Berry
            1 thinly sliced lemon with 1 cup Kirkland Triple Berry mix.  Mottle the           berries to release the delicious juice

Strawberry and Mint
            Slice or quarter 1 cup strawberries and add several mint leaves

Other ideas:  Cucumber and Mint, orange, lemon, or lime, thinly sliced apples, quartered grapes.  


Try some of these and let me know what you think!
