Amuse l'eau

Hello diehard blog watchers, it's time for my daily rundown of something wonderful and today, I'm all about fruit infusing (or whatever wondrous infusions you wish to dilute into an otherwise boring, tiresome pint of water) water bottles. This seems to have become a big deal overnight, people I follow on Instagram are forever lusting after one or have just got one and numerous people I know just float fruit in normal water bottle, wishing they had one. Tip: this is not so desirable due to frequent mouthfuls of soggy, colourless fruit. Trust me, a strawberry isn't so fun when it's been floating for a while.

So, I've had this water bottle for about three weeks now, having waited four months for it to arrive from China (I paid a lot less for it but had to wait to scratch my water bottle itch, if you can do the same then eBay is a hub of wondrous water bottles) and I have since found some delectable ideas, which I will share with you now.

I was a little bit blind as I did think this would make sin-free naturally strong squash, it is not quite that strong of  a taste; rather it tastes like fruit, but only a bit. However, I am not a girl who really thinks about her water intake as some so vehemently do and this does take that edge off the boredom of guzzling gallons of water  and make me drink more of it, so it's clever whatever it's doing.

So, my top three picks for stacking up this little bottle are:

1.) Lime, cucumber and mint. It's water but it tastes a little like a mojito, go figure. That's my sort of water. Go heavy on the lime, you won't be disappointed, promise.

2.) Ginger and orange water. A perfect way to soothe your stomach and replenish your fluids and it tastes gorgeous. One of the most flavoursome ones I tried. Ginger gets surprisingly potent when it's left to its own devices in fresh water. You'll only need about an inch of ginger, cut up into smaller pieces and then stack it up with orange slices.

3.) Frozen raspberries, blueberries and strawberries. A hint of summer berries, it's delicious. It made me crave Eton Mess, but so long as you can stave off from hurriedly and guiltily eating  a handful of meringue, you'll be golden.

I hope you all love these recipes as much as I do and if you have any combinations to add to my repertoire, please comment below. I'm always keen for any new suggestions. I'm one of those girls who will try anything once…you know…so long as it's edible or I can take it off with a make-up wipe.
