Heavenly Spa Water At Home: Refreshing Non-Alcoholic Drinks For A Hot Summer’s Night
Spas often provide refreshing water infused with real fruits or vegetables. Infused water with lush produce creates a visual aura of calm because they are as beautiful to look at as they are delicious.
Recently, in August’s Canadian Living, they let us in on mixing up fancy, flavored pitchers of spa water at home. Consider serving one of these the next time you entertain:
Infused Water
- In pitcher, mix 4 cups filtered water with flavorings; cover and refridgerate for at least 5 hours for flavors to infuse. Makes 4 servings.
Double Apple
- Add 1 each small red and green apple, sliced, and 1 TBSP lemon juice.
Watermelon Mint
- Add 2 cups cubed, peeled seedless watermelon and 1/2 cup fresh mint leaves.
Cucumber Lime
- Add 1 cucumber and 2 limes sliced.
Citrus Splash
- Add 1 each grapefruit, orange, lemon and lime sliced.
