Infused water is one of our favorite ways to stay hydrated in this house. Being able to add a little flavor to a fresh glass of water helps encourage my family to drink plenty of water.
The awesome news about using infused water to get your kids to drink more water is that there is a wide range of infused water recipes online.
From cucumbers to strawberries to mixes that include mint, infused water is the way to go if you’re looking to stay hydrated and get your kids to drink more water.

How long can you keep fruit in water?
When it comes to enjoying the many health benefits of infused water, it’s best that you drink the infused water that day.
If you plan to drink your infused water later on, then make sure you store the infused water bottle in the fridge.
If kept in the refrigerator water that has fruit in it can stay fresh for up to three days.

What Are The Health Benefits of Infused Water?
Increased Water Consumption
Since it’s not easy for many humans to drink plain water, infused water has the added health benefit to increase our water intake. Increased water consumption helps your body maintain a regulated temperature, have better blood circulation, and digest food easier.
Increased Fruit Consumption
There’s nothing wrong with finding a way to get more fruit into your daily diet. Drinking infused water allows you to get more fruit into your diet to maintain proper Vitamin levels. Whether you’re adding lemon, oranges, strawberries or any other fruit to your infused water bottle, it’s healthy to get that fruit into your body

Can I use frozen fruit to infuse water?
Yes, you can use frozen fruit to infuse the water. The reality is that you won’t like the results. Frozen fruit breaks down weird in water and can make it have extra lumps and won’t look as appealing as fresh fruit in an infused water bottle.
Throwing in a little mint into your water does help. These are great water-infused recipes to keep in mind. More so to stay hydrated.
I know I need to be better about staying hydrated. But plain water can get a little dull. These all sound like delightful recipes for infused water.
This infused water sounds great! I always have trouble drinking enough water, a little flavor goes a long way!
I love having infused water every now and then. I normally drink just plain water, but I enjoy infused sometimes too. I’m going to have to give many of these recipes a try. I’m sure my kids are going to love these too.
Using infused water is one way I make sure my daughter keeps water in her system. She is not a fan of no flavor foods or beverages but this offers so much nutrients and flavor while also keeping her hydrated! Love the options!
Yummy!! So many great flavor combinations here. I would love to try strawberry and mint myself! Sounds delicious.
Infusing fruits to water makes it less boring and refreshing. I can imagine how much fruits to add in a bottle. I a a huge fan of this.
I usually see this from gym goers. It levels up the water game! Fruits + H2O is perfection.
These all look like great and refreshing ideas! I would love to keep these drinks on-hand but also really like the idea of these being a great addition to a party for a different refreshment.
What a wonderful collection of infused-water recipes! It’s been so darn hot here in California. I could use a very large glass of cold, refreshing infused water right now!
I love infused water. I am going to save this for later so I can try these out in my pitcher.
I need to start doing this because I am running around all day. Water gets boring and I don’t want any juices. I’m thinking I may have to make a whole weeks worth at one time.
These all sounds absolutely amazing, I am living on squash at the moment and I am sure this would make such a better alternative I am going to have to try it!
I love anything that has mint in it. I get very refreshed when there is mint. I love peach, watermelon and strawberry, too.
Infused water REALLY helps me get it down – cause otherwise, I HATE water!!! HATE IT!
I gotta send this to my daughter she would love it. She’s always looking for new flavors to try.
I can’t wait to try some of these recipes. I love infused waters, especially during the summer months.
Yes please, I will be trying these out. I try to drink plenty of water throughout the day since we live in Texas, and sometimes it gets boring. But these would help!
I honestly did not know that you should use up infused water in a day! Going to look into that pitcher that you showed which is probably cleaner.
