There are some things that are an absolute necessity in life such as drinking water, a lot of it. While some don't mind the lack of flavor many of us prefer something sweeter. Instead of the usual of unhealthy sweetening options (high fructose corn syrup and other artificial sweeteners) infusing water with the zest of fruits & herbs helps you drink plenty of liquids without the of additional sugars and additives. It’s nutrition and hydration combined in every refreshing sip.
Grape Strawberry & Lime
10-20 small grapes, halved
1 (organic) lime, peeled and sliced
2 (organic) strawberries, sliced
Cut the grapes in half and slice the strawberries into 1/4″ slices.
Peel the lime rind off of the lime by cutting the ends of the lime off, then guiding your knife around the edge of the lime to remove the peel.
Cut the lime into slices, then cut those slices in half.
Place the fruit in an infusion pitcher core, lower it into a pitcher of water, and infuse for up to 8 hours at room temperature and up to 24 hours in the fridge.
*It’s important to remove the lime peel for longer infusions because the peel will make your water bitter.
