by Carlene Murray

We all know that water is an important part of our diet and health. It makes up 60% of our body and provides for many of our body’s functions. Without it our health and well-being suffer, but many prefer a more flavorful taste. Carbonated drinks, juices, and other choices are chosen over the plain taste of water. To help we have found some flavorful infused water recipes to brighten your summer days and boost your water intake!
