Fresh Infused Water

infused water

As healthy as I always try to eat – heaps of fresh vegetables and well sourced protein, organic when possible, and cooking my own food – my most noticeable pitfall was always a crucial one, hydration! I would go all day with only having coffee in the morning. I find water hard to drink unless I’m really thirsty. After moving into our new home and settling in, I started filling my glass carafe with water and fruit and allowing them to infuse for a few hours. In the evening I will drink it and refill for the next day. I highly recommend doing this simple thing to everyone who has a hard time getting in enough H20. It seems so easy and we hear about the benefits of hydration all the time. It was easier said than done for me, until now. My favorite combination is strawberries with fresh basil or lemon and mint. Cantaloupe is also delicious and aromatic. Another positive effect of water infusions, they are so darn beautiful to look at!
