I don't know about you, but sometimes I really don't feel like drinking water! One of my solutions is to add some fresh fruit or natural flavorings to my aqua to make things more interesting. This isn't really a 'recipe', it's more of an outline for making your own flavored water with your favorite fruits or flavors, I hope you enjoy! :)

Tips/Tricks:
