Easy Fruit & Herb Flavored Water
Ingredients
- fruit — 2 cups berries, citrus, melons, pineapple…most fruits will work (see recommended amounts in directions)
- herbs — a sprig of mint, basil, sage, rosemary, tarragon, thyme, or lavender
- water (tap or filtered)
- ice
DirectionsSupplies needed: 2 quart pitcher or jar with lid; muddler or wooden spoon
General formula for whatever fruit/herb combo you desire.
1. If using herbs, add a sprig of fresh herbs to jar/pitcher; press and twist with muddler or handle of wooden spoon to bruise leaves and release flavor; don’t pulverize the herbs into bits.
2. Add approx. 2 cups of fruit to jar/pitcher; press and twist with muddler or handle of wooden spoon, just enough to release some of the juices
3. Fill jar/pitcher with ice cubes.
4. Add water to top of jar/pitcher.
5. Cover and refrigerate for up to 3 days.
Suggested flavor combinations:
ALL CITRUS (no herbs) — Slice 1 orange, 1 lime, 1 lemon into rounds, then cut the rounds in half. Add to jar and proceed with muddling, add ice & water.
RASPBERRY LIME (no herbs) — Quarter 2 limes; with your hands, squeeze the juice into the jar, then throw in the squeezed lime quarters. Add 2 cups raspberries. Muddle, add ice & water.
PINEAPPLE MINT — Add a sprig of mint to the jar (you can throw in the whole sprig; or, remove the leaves from the sprig, if you prefer to have the mint swimming around and distributing in the jar). Muddle the mint. Add 2 cups pineapple pieces, muddle, add ice & water.
BLACKBERRY SAGE — Add sage sprig to jar and muddle. Add 2 cups blackberries; muddle, add ice & water.
WATERMELON ROSEMARY — Add rosemary sprig to jar & muddle. Add 2 cups watermelon cubes; muddle, add ice and water.Summer tiiiiiiime, and the living’s easy!!

GIVEAWAY GIVEAWAY GIVEAWAY GIVEAWAY GIVEAWAY GIVEAWAY !!!
So you may have seen that this weekend I decided to make a tardis pillow for myself (I also sold one on Etsy!). Well my mom and I have now made 4 tardis pillows with the left over fabric and what not…so I decided…why not give one away to my lovely followers!I am only giving away ONE pillow. It is handmade and made completely of felt. Postage will be paid by myself to anywhere in the world. (I will contact the winner for their address upon the competition’s completion)
RULES:
- You can reblog and like as many times as you would like. I like competition myself so I figured why not let people think of creative ways to get more likes and reblogs.
- You DO NOT have to be following me to win. I will count everyone who does follow me from now until the contest ends as an entry though (in the event someone wins that does not want it, I will do a redraw)
The contest ends June 20th (my college is weird and does not have finals till the week of June 12th and I want to be home to mail it to the winner because it will be simpler for me and hey, more time for everyone to enter!)
Good Luck!
ALSO, for simply my own benefit (not gonna lie), I will give an additional 30 entries to someone who can find me a quality place to watch the first three seasons of Doctor Who Confidential. I’m so over watching them in bits and pieces on youtube!
** there can be multiple “winners” for this so if you have like one season don’t be afraid to send it!
