Notes
- Please note that the nutrition calculation program is adding the calories of the fruit into the calculation for the recipe. The fruit is not eaten, so the actual calorie count for this recipe is close to zero.
- Tips:
- Store in the fridge for about two days. The infused water will still be good after that time, but the fruit will start to be a little too soft and can turn the water bitter.
- You absolutely do not have to sweeten infused water. Some people prefer a little sweetness. It tastes great either way!
