Wordless Wednesday: What I’m Drinking



I’m really trying to get those 8 glasses of water down each day.  I’m finding that flavoring my water helps a lot.  I’ve found a few different “recipes” that I’ll be sharing in the next week or so.


This one is citrus and mint.  I cut up a half of a lemon and half of an orange.  I added a sprig of chocolate mint and let it sit for about an hour.  (The longer it sits, the stronger the flavor.  I don’t like it too strong.)

  1. i never thought of this way to get my 8 glasses of water a day.. and with this heat i should be drinking more than that. Im going to have to try this out, but i think ill skip the mint. Im not to fond of the mint taste.

  2. It was really good! I only put one small sprig of mint – more would have been too much for me.

    Coming next – Watermelon and Cucumber with Basil…

  3. That’s a really good idea. I don’t drink soda so this is a good alternative to me that doesn’t make me feel so deprived. And I am also big on those Crystal Light single sticks, Brisk No Cal Iced Tea, and Light Hawaiian Punch. Good taste without all the calorie sacrifice!

  4. This sounds interesting! I drink tons of water daily (trying to be good) but I’m not a fan of flavored water. Your idea sounds tasty because I love mint. In fact I’m drinking some peppermint tea right now. I may give this a try. Thanks for sharing!
