3 1 Grape Orange This energizing beverage is great if you're going on a hike, or just before going to the gym. TIP: Leave orange peel intact for stronger infusion and flavour, so just chop and go! 1/2 Orange, cut in slices, and then quartered Organic grapes (depending on size) Divide your fruits for faster infusion. Remove the pointy ends of the orange, then it into 1/4 1/2 slices. The grapes should be halved, vertically Cutting the fruit should only take you a few minutes. If you have large or dull knife, I highly recommend the Wustoff Santoko Knife as It is absolutely AMAZING! Layer the oranges slices and grapes into the bottle s infusion chamber, then let the water infuse for 30 minutes to 1 hour room at temperature. You can infuse overnight in the fridge, but be sure to remove the fruit in the morning to achieve the best taste 1

4 2 Belly Blast Detox This is an amazing recipe that melts fat very quickly. The best part is, it only has three ingredients and is very easy and quick to make. 3 Basil leaves 3 Cucumber slices 1/4 Lemon 1 Ice cube (can be crushed) Add water to your preference Very simple recipe. Simply add the ingredients, and add water to your preference

5 3 Grapefruit Rosemary This is one of the most unique infused waters we ve ever tasted. It has a tangy grapefruit and herbal rosemary combine for a flavor-packed water, which helps to detoxify your liver and give you a boost of vitamin C. 1 Grapefruit 1 Sprig of fresh rosemary slices 1 Ice cube (can be crushed) Add water to your preference Cut the rind away from the grapefruit and cut the fruit into slices. Fill the infuser bottle with water, then lower the fruit into the water (instead of pouring water over the fruit). Use half of the grapefruit and half of the rosemary per container. Infuse for 2 hours at room temperature and up to 24 hours in your refrigerator Cut the ends off of the grapefruit, then use a sharp, small knife to cut away the rind If some of the rind stays on the fruit, that is okay. If you cut too much of the fruit off with the rind, simply squeeze the juice from the cut pieces into your water container Cut the grapefruit into horizontal slices. Cutting the grapefruit against the grain will allow for more juices to seep out

6 4 Grape Strawberry This is very fruity and very rich in flavour. This is a great drink for people who are new to infused waters. A longer infusion time (up to 24 hours) adds incredible flavour and gives the water a pink tint. 10 Small grapes (halved) - It s okay to use green grapes. Purple grapes are sweeter than green grapes, but both are fine to use 1/2 Organic lime (peeled and sliced) 1 Organic strawberry (sliced) Add water to your preference Cut the grapes in half so that they can release their flavor. Slice the strawberries into 1/4 slices Peel the lime rind off of the lime by cutting the ends of the lime off, then guiding your knife around the edge of the lime to remove the peel Cut the lime into slices, then cut those slices in half It s important to remove the lime peel for longer infusions because the peel will make your water very bitter. Don t worry, cutting away the peel is easy and you will get better every time. If you accidentally cut too much off, simply squeeze the juice into your pitcher so that nothing is wasted Next, stack your ingredients into the pitcher core

7 5 Watermelon Dreams Watermelon is 92% water and it is one of the highest water-content fruits and contains rehydration salts such as calcium, magnesium, and potassium that can actually hydrate you more effectively than water or sports drinks. 1 Small watermelon Add water to your preference Fill your water bottle with cold water, then lower the fruit infuser into the bottle. Pouring water directly onto the watermelon can cause it to break into pieces Watermelon is one of the few fruits you can enjoy after it has been infused. After drinking, you can snack on the infused watermelon to quench your thirst and replenish yourself with a few calories

8 6 Citrus Green Tea This amazing beverage will revive your metabolism with grapefruit and green tea. Maple syrup is optional and will adds about 25 calories to the recipe, but the sweet flavour will help balance out the acidity and make the drink more enjoyable. 1/4 Organic grapefruit 1/2 Organic lemon 1 Teaspoon grade A maple syrup 1 Bag of green tea Infuse for 2-3 hours at room temperature, then remove the tea bags Add 1 teaspoon of maple syrup (the real stuff that is labelled Grade A, not grocery store brands that are mostly corn syrup) to the bottom of your pitcher Add a 1/2 cup of water and swirl until mixed. Use organic tea, if possible Cut your the ends off of the grapefruit, then cut off the rinds of each side You will inevitably cut off some of the juicy interior, but simply take those side pieces and squeeze the juice. Cut lemon into cubes. Stack everything tightly, and leave the water to infuse at room temperature for 2-3 hours, allowing it to brew
