Looking to sip on something?
While some love water, some really struggle with the lack of flavor. You can opt for flavoring packets, but some of them are a little pricey. However, this week’s Happy Friday reader Jeanette is sharing how her fruit-infused water is helping her drink more water!
My family loves flavored water, but the prices of sparkling or flavored water have gone up so much! The idea of buying a soda stream seems intimidating. So, I have opted for fruit-flavored filtered water as a substitute.
If you have a Brita filter that you use in your own home, simply buy a reusable container for infused fruit. You then can have flavored water for a great price year-round! The container that I have is a Tupperware brand, but there are a lot of them for sale. I added frozen cherries to mine.
You can mix and match your flavors. with a variety of fruits and vegetables. Even adding herbs would be fun! The options are endless. My container fits perfectly on the door of my refrigerator. It holds 2L. I recommend refreshing the fruit every week or so.
I reuse my fruit two or three times before it loses its flavor. But, that’s an individual assessment. With this infused water, the hope is that we will drink more water. That is a win-win with the price tag of this drink!!!
Jeanette, thanks for sharing this Hip and easy tip! There’s nothing more refreshing than some fruit and veggie-infused water. Plus, it saves us a trip to the store without purchasing flavor packets.
Try making frozen smoothies!
