Infused waters are one of my favorite warm weather beverages. These fancy waters are perfect for parties or just a special treat to yourself! You can make a pitcher for a group of friends or single servings, like these. This summer I tried out lots of different flavor combinations. Here are a few favorites...
Lemon and Cucumber Water. This combination is super refreshing and tart!
Strawberry and Basil Water.This recipe a unique and so pretty! I recommend starting out with fewer basil leaves and adding more until it's perfect for you!
Mint Water. My personal favorite! I love all things mint. Frozen raspberries are also wonderful with mint.Try it!
I hope that you enjoy some pretty fancy water! xo, elsie




I love cucumber water! It's so much more refreshing than regular water haha

I love all things mint too! Right now I have a cold milk and mint drink for my breakfast. If someone'd told me about it, I would think it must taste weird, but on the contrary! It's delish! x

Looks great! I just bought one of those awesome giant jar dispensers with a little tap on the bottom, so it will totally be used for infused water this summer :)

Sound delicious. I have yet to try any infused water recipes, though I have put lemon slices into sparkling water before - yum! These sound great, especially the strawberry basil and the raspberry mint!

They are so pretty! I've always wanted to try making infused water. Seeing that it's possible to make cute single servings, I may want to give it a try :)
Best,
