Infusing water with fruits and vegetables – even herbs, spices & edible flowers – is a fun and tasty way to get hydrated! BEST of all, they are super healthy!
The possibilities are endless, in terms of fruit and vegetable combinations.
Choose organic fruits when possible, especially when choosing berries & non-peeled fruits. Also, wash all produce well before making the recipes.
Try these:

1/2 mango (peeled & sliced) + 2 (1/2″) pineapple rings + handful fresh basil
