Water is the most versatile, blank-canvas liquid for infusing. Our variety of water infusions includes an
invigoratingly healthy hangover cure
,
cold-brewed iced teas infused with fresh fruit
, and a
salted lime syrup
that can be used to mix up craft cocktails, which, in turn, elevate a casual weeknight delivery meal of
Thai food at home
. We’ll drink to that.

As much as we love the hot days of summer, it’s sometimes hard to escape that sticky feeling. Enter this cooling infusion. Lime, cucumber, and mint work together to create a refreshing sip that we keep in the fridge all summer long.
12 slices of cucumber
4 slices of lime
4 large sprigs of fresh mint
28 oz of water
i.
Combine the cucumber, lime, and mint in a 32 oz Mason jar. Muddle until lightly crushed.
ii.
Add the water, seal, and shake for 30 seconds to combine.
iii.
Serve over ice. The infusion will keep in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
Great for cooling down on hot summer days and feeling like you are drinking your vegetables (in a good way).
For all our water infusions we suggest using filtered tap water or bottled spring water for the freshest-tasting infusions. Don’t have either? Tap water can work, in a pinch.
