Summer is here, and we all know how important it is to stay hydrated. Especially when we are attending our favorite barre class, of course!
Drinking enough water can be difficult, but filling your favorite reusable water bottle with water and tasty fruits makes staying hydrated easy. IBBFA compiled a list of some delicious combinations to make your water anything but boring.
There are many benefits to drinking infused water besides the amazing taste. Drinking infused water helps to boost your metabolism, provide energy, flush toxins, and it can even satisfy your sweet tooth!
Pro tip: Try these recipes with coconut water instead of filtered tap water for some added flavor and extra potassium and sodium (electrolytes that help your body absorb water and retain hydration)!
Here’s the how-to:
Step 1: Grab your favorite water bottle, or jar.
Step 2: Add your choice of ice cold water or coconut water.
Step 3: Round up your favorite mixture of fruits and herbs.
Step 4: Let it sit in the fridge (the longer the water sits the better the flavor).
Step 5: ENJOY!
Pro tip: Keep ingredients pre-washed and cut and stored in fridge or freezer for easy access.
