Fruit Infused Water Review
I DO NOT like drinking water. I know I know; the human body needs water to survive and all that jazz. It’s just so bland in taste. I like to drink and eat things that have a robust flavor. As I’m writing this I can hear my daddy’s voice in my head; saying the same thing he always does, “Zee, drink your water. I don’t want to have to give you one of my kidneys.” Water is one of those things that is necessary no matter what. I make my kids drink water every day (what a bad influence right?), and they like it too. When I saw this fruit infused water craze taking over, I knew I had to try it. I figured it was the magic potion that would turn me into a water-drinking Voss bottle-toting machine. Needless to say, I was sadly mistaken. The water flavors I tried were watermelon blackberry, pineapple watermelon, and plain watermelon; I had extra fruit already, so I used what I had on hand. I chopped my fruit up, except for the blackberries, put them in twelve ounce wide-mouth mason jars and filled them with bottled water. They resided in my fridge overnight marinating for me the next day. The water was visually pleasing, with brightly colored fruits floating around in the jar plus it was effortless to make; unfortunately, I was disappointed. The waters didn’t get the blackberry flavor infused at all, and the watermelon and pineapple in the water made it taste slightly sweet and reminiscent of fruit; not like I thought it would be. I didn’t like the fruit infused water, and I don’t plan on making it anymore. I’ll just stick with plain ole’ clean-tasting bottled water. Summary
