I’m trying to cut out the sweets 🙂 Bummer… So…. this week I’m sharing a dietish kind of drink I made, it was inspired by Southern Living called glamorized water.
I have to admit this isn’t packed with a lot of flavor, but it’s so pretty!!! Try it for your next party, your friends will love it!!
It is so easy,you just need the following ingredients:
1 cucumber, 1 orange, 1 lemon, 1 lime, 1 kiwi, and some raspberries or strawberries.
Optional: sliced ginger and parsley sprigs for a garnish.
Slice all your items, except the raspberries :). I use a Mandelin, it makes nice uniform slices.
Put the ingredients in a pitcher, cover and chill about 1 hour. Serve over ice. Garnish, if desired.
PS: I slice extra fruit to add to the individual glasses when serving. I also add a bit of squeezed lemon and lime to the chilled water for a little extra zip.

Once we are all out of school in the summer, I keep a pitcher of water with citrus slices in the refrigerator all the time. My kids actually prefer this to premade drinks.
That sounds wonderful and good for them too!!
I can’t tell you how beautifully refreshing that looks.
