Grapefruit Rosemary Infused Water
Servings: 4
This fruit-infused water steeps fresh grapefruit slices and a few rosemary sprigs in cold water for a bright, lightly herbal drink you can keep refilling all day. Swap in sparkling water for fizz, and eat the fruit when the pitcher is empty.
Ingredients
- 4 cup water
- 1 grapefruit
- 3 fresh rosemary 3-4" long
Instructions
- Wash the grapefruit well and cut it into chunks or slices, leaving the skin on. Place in a pitcher or individual drinking containers.
- Gently press the rosemary between your fingers or palms to release its oils and add it to the pitcher.
- Fill with the water and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes or up to 48 hours. If using sparkling water, note that it will lose its fizz over time.
Notes
- Sparkling Swap: Use unsweetened sparkling water in place of still water for a little fizz.
- Refill Tip: Refill the pitcher with fresh water once or twice through the day. The flavor gets lighter each time.
- Flavor Combos: Try strawberries and lemon, orange and cinnamon, cucumber and mint, or watermelon with rosemary or other fresh herbs. Wash any produce well, since the skin stays on.
- Storing: Keep the infused water covered in the fridge. Strain out the grapefruit and rosemary within 48 hours so the pith doesn't turn it bitter.
