Infused Water Ideas

By draingal

The following "recipe ideas" are to be used with a 32 oz container, filtered water and organic fruit or herbs. Combine the ingredients of your choosing and simply pour water over the fruit and/or herbs and let infuse at room temperature for a half hour or so. Then you can place in refrigerator for at least a half hour. You can add ice without worrying about diluting the flavor too much.
