Turn ordinary water into extraordinary

Water is the ultimate thirst quencher, and something our bodies need to function properly. Yet, many people and moreso kids prefer sugar filled juices and soda. Below are some simple ideas liven up water and hopefully get your family drinking more!

Suggestions-

• Add citrus slices
Orange, grapefruit, lemon, lime, tangerine, and kiwi slices add a little citrus zing to water

• Toss in some herbs
Mint, lemongrass and peppermint in particular are very tasty in water

• Cucumber
A spa favorite, cucumber water is very refreshing

• Berry delicious!
Strawberries, blueberries, boysenberries, raspberries and so on add sweetness and flavor to plain old water

• Spritz up your water
If you really need fizz, add a dab of soda water with some fruit

• Pears, peaches, and plums
Yet more fruit additions to water, the riper the fruit the sweeter your water will taste

Kids will love experimenting with flavors and helping find some great natural flavored water combinations!
