Cucumber Mint Infused Water

1/3 cup roughly 6-8 thick slices english cucumber

1/3 cup fresh mint leaves

1 quart cold or room temperature water

Watermelon Basil Infused Water

1/3 cup watermelon cubes seedless

4-6 basil leaves

1 quart (4 cups) cold or room temperature water

Cherry Lime Infused Water

1/4 cup cherries pitted and sliced in half

4 slices lime seeds removed, with peel

1 quart (4 cups) cold or room temperature water

Blackberry Orange & Ginger Infused Water

6-8 blackberries

3-4 slices orange with peel

4-5 slices ginger peeled

1 quart (4 cups) cold or room temperature water

Strawberry Lemon Infused Water

4-5 strawberries halved

4-5 slices lemon seeds removed, with peel

1 quart (4 cups) cold or room temperature water

Instructions

Add the fruit, spices, and/or herbs to the bottom of a sealable bottle or 1 quart mason jar.

Pour in cold water. Stir to mix well.

Let the water get infused at room temperature for 1-2 hours or refrigerated for about 3-4 hours before drinking it. (Infusing for up to 8 hours will make it pretty strong, if you prefer that.)

If you didn’t get to drinking your water within 12 hours, I recommend removing the fruit at that point and storing without the fruit so the flavor doesn’t become too powerful and overwhelming. Then, you could store it in the fridge for a couple days that way.
