These flavored waters are healthier than the usual sugary sodas, iced teas and lemonades — but they're a whole lot more exciting than plain old H20. Infused with fresh fruits, vegetables and herbs, they're everything you never knew you wanted in a glass of water.
Nothing says “summer” like bright, fresh fruit tumbling around in your water glass. Crushing the raspberries before infusing helps them impart the most flavor into your drink.
This sweet sip doesn't need much doctoring up. Simply add thin slices of ripe melon to a frosty glass of ice water for one of summer’s most-refreshing treats.
Muddled mint and watermelon make for a drink that’s bursting with refreshing flavors. Serve a pitcher at your next backyard soiree and watch kids as well as adults clamor to refill their glasses.
A twist on the classic lemon water, this beverage has the subtle splash of fresh citrus to up the refreshment factor, but with a new, sweet-tart flavor to keep things interesting.
No one likes soggy cucumber, so for optimal freshness, allow the cukes to infuse the water for a few hours, then drain and replace with fresh, crunchy slices to serve.
Squeezing a wedge of lemon into a glass of ice water could get the job done, but letting whole slices infuse adds a more delicate and evenly distributed flavor to your drink.
