Spice Up Your H2O

As we get deeper into the summer heat keeping hydrated has never been more important.  It seems like flavoured water products and drinks have become increasingly more popular. Last year I posted the recipe on how to make apple cinnamon water  as a fun way to spice up your H2O; you can save money, calories, and avoid artificial sweeteners by just making a big pitcher of delightfully flavoured water with your own natural ingredients.

My current favourite is a sprig of mint with a slice of lemon; keep refilling the same bottle throughout the day and the mint will just keep on giving!

Another great combo is cucumber and lemon, and grapefruit slices are a nice flavour punch as well!  Don’t be afraid to get creative and if you haven’t already take a look at Michelle’s Weighing in on Water for all the amazing benefits of staying hydrated!

Happy hydrating!
