Ideas to Help You Drink More Water

by superexhausted on May 8, 2012

Water as I diet and get healthy, water has been vital to making my weight loss quest successful.  So I have been developing new ways to flavor water. DIY flavor water.  My kids also could not wait to try the DIY flavored water as well.

Here are some homemade flavored water ideas.

  • Melon
  • Strawberries with lemons
  • Mint
  • Cucumbers (try mixing with melon)
  • Apples
  • Peaches
  • Berries
  • Bell of Hot pepper/with red pepper flakes
  • Cinnamon sticks
  • Cilantro or basil with cherry tomatoes
  • A drop of hot sauce

Try these flavors with your water, it will add a fancy fun element to the same old, plain everyday water.

  • chill the water in the fridge
  • then add ice before serving

wow guest by having a pretty way to serve flavored water in vintage glasses and pitches.

**Also freeze ice cubes with flavors inside

Sometimes I use frozen blueberries or frozen grapes, then I eat them after consuming a couple of glasses of water, when they get almost room temperature.

Haven’t tried those cereals, but I swear by the new glteun free Chex; cinnamon is a particular favorite, but I also like the plain corn and rice chex flavors too. They are at the top of my favorites list because they aren’t overly crunchy like some gf cereals are. They are a nice change of pace from my usual breakfast which is a piece of organic fruit and a nice big glass of water!

Everything looks so pretty and yummy! I’ve been on the hunt for more glass pitchers. There’s one hiding in my basement which I can never find so I need to have some extras on hand. I think water tastes so much better in glass than plastic. Just my thing!
