So if you’ve ever come home after a night of wine, or too much sun, or simply being out\u00a0just too late<\/em> you know what it feels like to really, really need some water. In the summer, I feel like these days are plentiful, and I think that a lovely solution is to switch up how you hydrate. Insert vitamin water! Sometimes I see these at the store, but I personally don’t like fake sweeteners, and I don’t like to drink my sugar, either. So I decided to make some of my own vitamin water that would give me flavored water without the unneeded calories and taste.<\/p>\n

You’ll need:<\/p>\n

mint<\/strong> (or an herb of your choice)
\nblueberries<\/strong> (or a berry of your choice)
\nlemon<\/strong> (or a citrus of your choice)
\ncucumber<\/strong> (or a melon of your choice)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I started with mint…I crushed it a bit in my mortar to release the flavor.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Next, cut up a lemon (or orange, or lime, or grapefruit, or…)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Then maybe a handful of blueberries.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Stick ’em in a quart of water (or so.)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Add your mint and lemon…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And of course, some cucumber.<\/p>\n

You can let this marry flavors overnight, or drink it immediately, or some combo of both. Mix and match for a delightful summer beverage!<\/p>\n
