đź’ˇ How to Make Infused Water:
Add your chosen fruits and herbs to a large pitcher.
Pour in 5–6 cups of water.
Gently muddle fruits or herbs to release flavor.
Let it infuse for at least 20 minutes (1–2 hours for best taste).
Add ice and enjoy!
🌿 Pro tip: Let the water sit at room temp for up to 2 hours before transferring to the fridge to prevent bacteria growth.
🍓 1. Strawberry, Lemon & Basil
A refreshing trio that’s slightly sweet, citrusy, and full of anti-inflammatory goodness. Lemon adds detoxifying vitamin C and polyphenols, strawberries bring antioxidants, and basil has calming, skin-soothing properties. It’s a bright and zesty way to start your week.
