HERBS 

Mint, lemongrass, thyme, rosemary, sage, ginger and parsley are great for adding aroma and a hint of health to your water. Chopping up the herbs before adding to water helps to release the taste of the herbs.

CITRUS 

Add slices of organic lemon or lime or orange to water to add a bit of flavour to regular water.

BERRIES

 Cut or crush a few blueberries, raspberries or strawberries into your water to give it a sweet, fruity flavour.  You can also make ice cubes out of crushed berries and add them to your water for a nice summer drink.

 

Remember, the quality of the water you are using to prepare our delicious drinks is important to your health and well-being!!!
