Here’s the sad truth: I don’t love the taste of plain water. (I fess up to that one and a few more in My 5 Worst Eating Habits). I mean, It’s fine. But it rarely gets me chugging like I should. A little bit of flavoring? That’s a game-changer.
Fruit infused water is such a light, refreshing solution. You can flavor water without adding a bunch of calories and sugar. And though you can buy bottled fruit water, making your own is simple. In my new post for Inspired Home, I researched the do’s and don’ts for making homemade fruit infused water and learned a lot. Did you know that you should always peel your citrus first because the rind can make your water bitter? There’s also a limit to how long you should keep fruit infused waters before they start to spoil.
To get all the tips, read my post over at Inspired Home How To Make Your Own Fruit Infused Waters.
Are you a fan of fruit infused water? I’d love to hear about your favorite combinations!
