Adding things to water...

My friend does this already, and I wanted to get some input on it because I want to try it...

In a gallon of water, slice up 2 lemons, 1 lime, and use 8 mint leaves. I would drink this throughout the day, since I am not a huge fan of plain old water. I have read that the lemon and lime help with metabolism, and obviously drinking water has benefits.

My friend is able to reuse the ingredients for about 5 days before having to put new in, and she says the flavor is still good after the 4th day.

Thoughts?

    I have heard of adding many things. Cucumbers, watermelon, oranges. I like the subtle flavor it gives it :)
