Berry Infused Water Recipes

Keeping your body hydrated is important, but unless you’ve just binged on a large bag of chips, chugging down eight glasses of water for daily hydration may not sound that exciting to you. If you are looking for a way to increase your daily water intake, or is just bored of the taste of plain old H2O, fruit infused water may be a good option for you.

Water infused with natural ingredients such as fruits, vegetables and herbs not only taste better, but it can offer additional nutritional and health benefits; some includes appetite control, faster metabolism and improved immune functions. Fruit infused water entice you to drink more, and make staying hydrated less of a chore and a bit more fun.
