It’s a new year, so there’s no better time to refresh the new you. Did you know that adding more water to your diet can aid in weight management? Summer bodies are made in the winter… so drink up!

Making infused water couldn’t be easier. There’s no exact recipe here, simply add as much fresh herbs and sweet fruit as your little heart desires.

Grab your favorite pitcher and fill it with fresh water. Then add some flavor enhancers from our list above. Voila, you’re all done!

A few notes to keep in mind:

  • To maximize flavor, place your infused water in the fridge for at least an hour after adding herbs and fruit. This allows everything to mingle a bit.
  • If you’re in a hurry, slightly smash fruit before adding to the pitcher. This adds instant flavor that you can enjoy right away.
  • When adding leafy herbs like mint and basil, make sure to slap them against the palm of your hand to awaken their scent and flavor.

Ok, ok, here’s a recipe:
