flavored water

I've been waking in the night really thirsty after a day of scratching at my dry skin so I figured it's time to step up my water consumption. And since I've gotten off of artificial sweeteners Crystal Lite (etc) isn't in my shopping basket I thought I would try some of the fruit teas.  The passion fruit, blueberry and mint herbal teas are great - so refreshing!  Then I came across some receipts for flavored water which inspired me to try making my own concoction... grated fresh ginger and a mint tea bag- a touch of a bite balanced with a bit of coolness. Volla - a very pleasant alternative to plain ol' filtered water.

Today's inspiration comes from: Drinking Enough Water/Flavored Water Receipts
