We hear it everywhere – right? We know it is good for us – right? But do you drink enough water?
I know I don’t myself.
Coffee all morning – many cups… Wine in the evening – (ahem) no comment…
All dehydrating.
So I TRY to drink a couple of glasses of water in between.
I was watching a show on Food Network recently that took muddled honeydew and coconut water and lime juice that they made look like a cocktail!
Fruit Infused Water seems to be all the rage.
So I thought I’d try my own version.
I must say – DELISH!
For my water “cocktail,” I simply mixed some muddled fresh red raspberries and lime juice to some sparkling water over a tall glass of ice.
Another really refreshing way to drink water that seems all the rage is with freshly sliced cucumbers; and with all the cucumbers I’m harvesting (YAY!), I tried this too – with simple tap water. Nice when you don’t want something “sweet.” And it is amazing how quickly it infuses.
It’s not quite cucumber vodka (which – – have you tried yet? with tonic – YUM!) …… but – I so easily digress – we’re hydrating now – remember?!
And it always tastes better with a cute straw – right?
Drinking Water…

They all look totally refreshing, especially with your expert photography! I drink a lot of water with lemon in it. It’s like lemonade without the sugar. Good if you like tart things. Anyway, maybe I’m being dense, but what does “muddled” mean? Thanks for your blog – I sure enjoy it!

Thank so much for reading, Pam and letting me know you enjoy. I appreciate the comment(s) immensely, and it brings me such joy to do. Muddling is really just a fancy “bartender” term for smashing fruit in the bottom of a glass when mixing with liquid (often alcohol as in a mojito with fresh mint and lime). But basically – I just mean mash the berries a bit to get the juice coming out. 🙂 Have a great day. I am going to drink a glass of water now – after a nice morning walk and before my cup of coffee. Cheers!

I need to drink a lot more water and probably would if you were around to prepare such delicious things. My problem is the side effect of drinking so much water. I’m sure you understand. LOL!

I’m going to have to give that strawberry one a try, sounds delicious! I definitely don’t drink enough water, I too am a coffee junkie! There is water in that though right?! 🙂
