Infused water experienced a true boom in the last few years and it’s not difficult to see why. It’s tasty, refreshing, and picture-perfect at the same time and it allows you to stay hydrated in a new way. If you enjoy making detox water but feel it’s missing a little bit of something to be perfect, these tips will help you take it to the next level.
Perfect Timing
Timing is everything when it comes to infused water. Drinking it fresh is your best bet, but if you can’t do it all at once refrigerating it for up to 24 hours is also an option. Keep in mind it shouldn’t be kept at room temperature for too long, and two hours should be the limit.
Perfect Slices
The slicing technique that you’re using can make or break your infused water. Hard fruits, such as apples, should be thinly sliced because it will take them less time to release flavor this way. That’s not the case with softer fruits, and you can cut them any way you see fit.
Extra Ingredients
Most people add fruits to their infused water and call it a day, but these aren’t the only ingredients that you should take into consideration. You can also use herbs and edible flowers, such as dried hibiscus, mint, and rose petals, to take your detox water to the next level.
