Infused Water

Posted by nicki on May 31, 2011 in Uncategorized |

Here are some great combinations of flavors to add to a simple jug of water to create some amazing thirst quenchers.  Originally found on the food coop site. 

INGREDIENTS

6 cups chilled still spring or mineral water
12 thin slices cucumber
4 thin slices lemon
4 sprigs fresh mint, slightly crushed
2 sprigs fresh rosemary, slightly crushed

6 cups chilled still spring or mineral water
10 strawberries, sliced thin
1 tub of blueberries
4 sprigs fresh mint, slightly crushed

6 cups chilled still spring or mineral water
1 ½ C watermelon slices
2 lemons, sliced thin
4 sprigs fresh mint, slightly crushed

6 cups chilled still spring or mineral water
2 limes, sliced thin
2 lemons, sliced thin
4 sprigs fresh thyme
4 sprigs of cilantro

Preparation
In a 2- to 2 1/2-quart pitcher, combine water, cucumber, lemon, mint, and rosemary. Serve, or cover and chill at least 2 hours or up to 8 hours. Add ice cubes just before serving.
These concoctions will last in your fridge for roughly 2 days. Crushing of the mint is not necessary but it does add to the flavor of the water.  I hope this will help with quenching your thirst
