If you struggle to drink plain water all day, this is something you may like! This is flavoured water – a great alternative to anyone who goes for the bottled drinks – try this instead! I’ve been making flavoured water with different flavour variations – but I think this combo is especially yummy. Ever since I started making them – I’ve had no problem staying hydrated and I feel better. And that’s we want, right – to feel our best!

Not only will you get the benefits from water which include mental clarity, energy, healthy gut, overall health – but because of the citrus and berries – you’ll get the added vitamins too! Full of beautifying properties and antioxidants – you get a boost of vit C which plays a key role in healthy, youthful skin!

Now, it’s not a juice – it doesn’t even taste like one. It’s a really good flavoured water, light and refreshing with a touch of sweetness. Make a whole litre of it and keep it in the fridge or carry it out in your water bottle. You’ll see, drinking water will become an enjoyable treat!

Citrus & Berry
Thirst Quencher

ingredients:

  • less than 1 litre (about 4 cups ) of water – (the fruit will fill it up)
  • 1 sweet orange, peeled
  • 4 ripe strawberries (don’t take the greens tops off!)
  • a toddler’s handful of blue berries

directions:

  • in your blender, blend up all the ingredients (check my my top 3 favorite blenders)
  • recommended: strain the mixture so it’s not gritty from the seeds
  • bottle it up and drink

I don’t think it needs sugar or sweeteners – make sure to choose ripe fruits so that it’s naturally sweet.

If you like this, let me know and I’ll share some more of my fav. combos.  Also, let me know what flavoured waters you come up with!

  1. Hello 🙂 I’ve been a long-time lurker and I really enjoyed receiving your newsletters all these while.

    While I love all your photographs and posts, I have a favour to ask, actually: may I know where you got that steel straw from? I have been looking for one for months! Thanks in advance!

  2. Very welcome 🙂 If you’re into Indian cooking, this is possibly the only place in Singapore that sells cold pressed, organic mustard oil and other Indian flours, spices and lentils. They’re a new business so often have stock issues. I’m not affiliated to them in any way. Just a happy customer who would like to support businesses that sell good stuff, unlike the junk flooding the supermarket shelves. I personally am passionate about nutritious home baking. Pop by http://www.facebook.com/FireplaceGourmetBreads if you’d like to take a look. Cheers!

  3. I made your recipe of citrus and berry thirst quencher, only I substituted pomagranate for orange peel. Raw honey could be added for sweetness, but I liked the tart flavor. Thank you for such a nice recipe.
