Fruit Infused Water Might Save My Life.

When I heard about the new fruit infused water craze, I had to investigate.  I absolutely hate water and it is very hard for me to drink so I know that I don't get even 1/4 of the daily recommended amount.  With that being said, I was excited about this fruity water.  I don't like to drink the water with the fake sweeteners so this seems like an awesome and inexpensive way to fix all of my water problems.  I stayed at the Hotel Preston in Nashville  over New Years and every morning as I stumbled down hungover to the lobby, they had fresh fruit infused water, See above photo.  Every morning it was filled with a different fruit and one day I was surprised with cucumber water and it was wonderful. 

Okay so get you some gallons of water, room temp and add your desired fruit to the water. You can add as much as you want.  Be logical, I use one lemon per gallon of water.  Each fruit says it has a different time that it needs to sit out but I call bullshit and just do two hours. Meaning cut the fruit into slices, chunks, whatever and shove it in our gallon jug or picture, whatever. Let it sit in room temp for 2 hours, refrigerate and enjoy.  The options are limitless I guess, everyone has their own taste.  I love any citrus waters,  lemons, limes, and oranges.... Yum.  Also the cucumber water was one of my faves.  I now drink about 64 ounces a day which is a huge difference and we all know the benefits of water.  Time to get healthy and this is a simple start.
