Adding ice cubes will help ensure that the fruit and herbs stay cold while they infuse together.

Step 4 | Serving Tips

• One of my favorite ways to serve infused drinks is to use mason jars.

Variations

• Mint - swap out the fresh basil for fresh mint.
• Green Grapes - add green grapes along with the red grapes or a combination of both!
• See this Citrus Flavored Water Recipe on my website!

Storage

Store the water in the refrigerator for up to three days. You should remove the fruits and basil leaves after 24 hours so they don't leave the water bitter.

Try freezing the leftover water in ice cube trays. Add pieces of fresh basil for added flavor to your ice cubes.

Top Tips

• Wash the vegetables and fruit to remove any chemicals from pesticides that were used in growing. Again, make sure you wash in cold water.
• If you keep the rinds on the oranges, after four hours they can make the water taste bitter.
• Slice softer fruits, like the grapes, thick, while harder fruits, like the oranges, should be sliced very thin.
