Summer is officially here and temperatures are heating up.  So hop on board the hydration-train and get ready to dip into some naturally flavored water!

Infusing water with fresh fruits and herbs is a great way to encourage yourself- and your kids- to drink up and stay hydrated all summer long.  Just place desired flavor-infusers in a pitcher, add water, and let the fun begin.

Have a big family, or entertaining a crowd?  Use a large countertop beverage dispenser for your naturally flavored water.  Not only will it look pretty, but you’ll have plenty of flavorful, thirst-quenching water at the ready.

The rainbow of flavor combinations is as bountiful as the market stand.  But here are some we came up with…

Cucumber Mint
Lime Mint
Apple Grape
Strawberry Basil
Kiwi Strawberry
Lychee Kiwi
Lemon Ginger
Mango Cantaloupe
Honeydew Mint
Starfruit Honeydew
Pineapple Peach
Passion Fruit Peach
Peach Chamomile

If you don’t have fresh herbs at the ready, just pop an herbal tea bag into your pitcher.
