Bye-Bye Dull Water!

Okay....

We all know that water is good for us, right? We all have heard about the "8 glasses of day" that we are apparently supposed to have each day.

If you are anything like me (and I hope that you are), you will find it a little hard to consume that much water. I am a flavor kinda gal, so I have found some simple ways to make water more enjoyable.

Here are some "flavor" ideas that are chemical-free to help you get your 8 glasses a day!

*Please keep in mind that the longer a fresh veggie/fruit/herb is soaking in the water, the more you will taste it. My own perference is to set water aside into a sport bottle in the fridge with flavor additive soaking in it overnight!*

1. Mint. Light, and refeshing, mint can sure brighten up a day! In this case, you can use either fresh mint leaves or mint extract. Yum!

2. Lemon. It is like a healthier version of lemonade! It's all of the lemon, and none of the sugar! My tip is to use squeezed lemon juice.

3. Berries. Fresh berries make an awesome addition to water. For best results, squeeze fresh berries into your water.Mmmm.

There are plenty of other things you can add to your water! Be creative! I have been known to mix a few flavors in my day!

Naturally Yours,

Joyful
