8 Ways to Add Flavor to Filtered Water
Admit it! You don’t reach the 8 glasses of water you are required to drink every day simply because water from filtered water dispenser taste bland and boring compared to, say frap, sodas and a mojito. So to entice you to drink more of that lovely water cranked out by your water purification system, we have come up with 8 ways to add flavour to filtered water. These flavoured water are healthier alternatives to your usual coffee, sodas and iced teas but more fun to drink than your regular old water because they contain fruits, veggies and herbs.
Melon Water
Simple yet refreshing, this recipe just requires one ingredient apart from purified water: ripe melon –which is a popular fruit for beating the heat.
Cucumber Water
Cucumbers always add that fresh flavour to regular water. To prevent drinking water with soggy cucumbers, soak the cucumbers in the water for a couple of hours and then drain them and replace with fresh cucumbers before serving the water.
Lemon Water
Cocktail drinks often come with lemon wedges for squeezing their zesty flavours in but for your water, infusing whole lemon slices into the drink will create a more balanced yet subtle flavour.
Grapefruit Water
Those who wants to try other options aside from lemon but don’t want to wander far from the citrus family, you may also try grapefruit for its unique citrus taste.
Pineapple Mint Ginger Water
For those of you who loves mojitos, you may try this combo that consists of delicious mint and pineapple. Mint and ginger are also known to be good for soothing the tummy.
Tomato Basil Water
If you love marguerite pizza, then you will also love mixing tomato and basil in your drink this time without worrying about the cholesterol and grease, of course!
Tomato Celery Bell Pepper Water
Now that you have started using veggies in your water and found that they’re quite delectable, there’s no stopping you from using other veggies in your drink… is there? The tomato, celery and bell pepper combination is also a must-try for an all-healthy flavourful drink!
Strawberry Cucumber Water
If you enjoy sipping fruity cocktail concoctions, you will surely love mixing strawberry and cucumber into your water sans the alcohol as it is equally refreshing.
Before you can reinvent your ways of drinking water with these added ingredients, make sure that you use only clean and filtered water from a reputable filtered water dispenser/water purification system. A perfect example of this is the Black & Decker 5-Stage Filtration System discounted for a quarter of its original price at Supreme Deals Manila. The water filtration system can be bought for only P395, a big steal for its original price of P1,695 and also comes with a free Aqua Optima filter (originally priced at P350).
