13 Spa Water Recipes to Keep You Refreshed
Take your water up a notch.

We all know that we should be drinking more water every day. In fact, some of us (raising my hand), need to be drinking a lot more water every day. But gulping down glass after glass of plain water can often feel overwhelming…and kind of boring. Luckily, there’s a way to make managing your water intake way easier. Infused water recipes add a variety of fruits, vegetables and herbs to water to amp up the taste.
Here are some of our favorite infused water recipes to help you easily meet your daily requirement. So, drink up and get healthy!
