Great for warm summer days, alongside a meal, or on a special occasion. Serve in a clear pitcher during a gathering with friends and family to show the vibrant colors of the fruit infused water. Helpful tip: The longer you let this beverage chill in the fridge, the more flavor it will have.

Directions
