Notes

  • Use sparkling water for a fizzy variation.
  • Try other combos like cucumber + mint, orange + rosemary, or blueberry + lavender.
  • Can be stored in the fridge for up to 2 days—just remove herbs after 12 hours to avoid bitterness.
  • Refill with more water once or twice before replacing the fruit and herbs.
