Healthy Sparkling Infused Water Recipe GUIDE
I’ve come to learn sparkling infused water is magical.

Not only is the bubbliness fun and interesting to drink, but it’s quite easy to infuse it with fruits and veggies and herbs, taking it to soaring heights!

Most of the combinations I recommend here push abundant nutrients into the water, including antioxidants, vitamin C, anti-aging Vitamin A and potassium in particular. Most also add anti-inflammatory properties, as well as actually prevent water retention (it’s water, though, go figure!) and are strong detoxifiers.

All You Need To Know About Carbonated Waters

Now about carbonating these waters.

I use a home carbonator to make the sparkling water – it’s so much better on your wallet and the environment, but if you don’t want to buy a machine, go on and buy seltzer water at the store.

The addition of seltzer to infused water really makes already-special infused water, super special.

The infused water recipe featured here is Blueberries Lemon Mango and Mint – rich with antioxidants from the blueberries, vitamin C from lemon, anti-aging properties from the mango, and fresh flavor from the mint – put it all in seltzer water, and you have one bubbly refreshing pitcher!

Another favorite combo of mine is Kiwi Strawberries Cucumber – with kiwi being a great system purifier, strawberries strong on anti-aging and cucumbers with those water-retention-prevention abilities and a superb detoxifier in general.
And here are even more combos I love:

• -Strawberry Mango Mint
• -Peach Ginger Lemon balm
• -Lemon Strawberries Lavender
• -Watermelon Cucumber Basil
• -Blueberry Oranges Tarragon
• -Honeydew Lime Dill
• -Kiwi Strawberries Cucumber

And I plan on working on more recipes as the weather warms, I want to try an icy infused water with Turmeric (wouldn’t that be fun!), and passionfruit to add a lovely scent.
