  • Use fresh ingredients: Ensures the best flavour and maximum nutrient benefits.
  • Let it sit longer: For stronger flavour, let the water infuse for at least 30 minutes.

  • Stir before drinking: Helps distribute the infused flavours more evenly.

VARIATIONS

 

  • Add berries: Blueberries or raspberries provide extra antioxidants and a mild sweetness.
  • Boost hydration: Add a few slices of watermelon for a refreshing twist.
  • Increase citrus: Use a mix of lemon, lime and orange slices for a citrus-packed flavour.
  • Herbal twist: Swap mint for basil or rosemary for a unique herbal infusion.

PREPPING AND STORAGE

 

  • Short-Term Storage: Store infused water in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 12 hours for optimal freshness.
  • Refreshing the Flavours: If stored longer, remove the lemon slices to prevent bitterness and replace them with fresh ones.
  • Not Recommended for Freezing: Fresh cucumber and mint lose texture when frozen and thawed.
