  • Hello....I just recently started doing this using 24 ounce Ball canning jars. I have tried blueberries, strawberries, lime, lemon, cucumber, apples, cinnamin sticks, mint leaves, mango and oranges........different combinations of all of these. The jars work really well.

    Check out http://www.infusedwaters.com/

    Lots of great recipes. I drink a lot of tea in the winter, but try to do an infused water every day.

    Out of curiosity, how long do fruit/vegies last in water? I made cucumber and lime last night before bed, drank tonight when I got home from work. Some websites say 8-12 hours, some are saying 3-5 days!

    A clear answer would be awesome!

    I did this once with crabapples but substituted the water for vodka - results? Apple shots :drinker:

    Fresh rosemary and pineapple chunks is my current fave :-)
  • I love the cucumber, mint, raw ginger and lime as a detox. I have seen my stomach go down, but not the weight loss I anticipated. However, I love the recipes I have found on line and I will continue to make this an everyday regimen.
  • I have kept mine for as long as 4 days. I am now sure of the potency after 4 days. Various websites have said approximately 3 days.

    I find drinking sparkling water with some raspberries and mint in helps too! I also sometimes I use blueberries and strawberries! :)
    It's like having a 'mocktail' without all the sugars! :)

    you don't really need a "special pitcher" for it, do you? because i make infused waters at work all the time in my regular water bottle. i love cucumber and mint water though, so refreshing.

    I add lemon, cucumber and mint most often. Sometimes I'll grab some frozen pineapple or strawberries or blackberries and mint. It helps mix things up a bit.

    Ahhh dang it. I've been meaning to try making infused water for weeks, but I keep forgetting. I'm so glad I saw this thread.

    I wish I could make one with raspberries, strawberries, lemon... hmm. :/
