Flavorful Ideas for Enhanced Water

I know there are so many delicious beverages on the market, but many of them have toxic amounts of sugar, preservatives and caffeine that can cause dehydration and lead to health and weight problems. A tasty solution that I love is infusing fruits, vegetables and herbs for my own enhanced water. The flavor possibilities are endless and the nutritional value is awesome!

Here are some of my favorite combinations:

1. Kiwi Lime - This is a tasty enhanced water that works great for a mid-morning beverage to keep you hydrated and alert. I love enjoying this water with a piece of fruit on the side.
2. Strawberry Lemon - A perfect summer combination that is great for relaxing at the beach or sitting on the front porch. Sunshine is a great indicator that it’s a strawberry-lemon enhanced water type of day :)
3. Blackberry Basil - This berry herb tango is sure to make your taste buds jump and is a nice evening beverage. Enhanced water should be exciting!
4. Watermelon Blueberry Mint - This enhanced water is formed from an unlikely trio that creates a heavenly taste and is delicious with a snack of raw almonds.
5. Cucumber Orange - A simple meal is complemented by this refreshing enhanced water that has a light, citrusy flavor and won’t overpower the flavors of your dinner.
6. Cilantro Lime - Try this yummy combo when you need a burst of flavor without the added calories. This is a great water to drink while enjoying a nice black bean dish or a fresh salsa.

How To Infuse Your Enhanced Water: Simply add your desired ingredients to fresh water and chill. The more time you let your enhanced water soak, the stronger the flavor. There are plenty of water bottles that are designed for enhanced water and have a twist off “cage” for your infusions so you can also take your enhanced water on the go.

The combinations for homemade enhanced water are limitless - try any combination you can dream of! It can be as simple as one fruit, vegetable or herb and can be as complex as you want to make it. Healthy choices can be easy and delicious with the simple beverage solution of enhanced water. Start your infusions today!

A healthy life starts with healthy choices - it’s time to make the decision to switch from sugary beverages to healthy enhanced water. You can infuse your water easily at home and choose to use ingredients that will make your taste buds happy and keep you healthy and hydrated.
