Once you’ve got your Live Infinitely Fruit Infuser bottle, you’re ready to start planning which of the endless recipes to try first!
Choosing the right ingredients for your infused water depends on two things:
There are two main health goals that people aim for when making infusions. First, many people make infused water to help them detox their bodies. Second, lots of people drink infused water to provide them with an extra boost of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Take the time to think about what health goals you want to achieve when choosing your ingredients. Of course, you can always just go for what tastes the best!
You can use a huge variety of fruits, herbs, and even vegetables to make infused water. Fresh produce will add extra zing and pep to your water, while frozen fruits and berries add a more subtle flavor. It is also possible to infuse your water using dried herbs or fruit. Always make sure you thoroughly wash any fruit or herbs before adding them to your water.
It’s always a good idea to buy organic produce if you can, but if this is not an option, just try and get the best produce available to you. Always make sure you thoroughly wash any fruit or herbs before adding them to your water.
You can find ingredients for infused water at your local supermarket, organic produce stores, farmers’ markets, or health food shops. If you have the space, you can even grow your own!
Next, you’ll need to decide on how long the infusion time should be. Generally, you can leave your water to infuse at room temperature for 1-2 hours or 3-4 hours in the fridge. The longer you leave your water, the more potent the infusion will be.
If you plan on infusing for a long time, be sure to take all the ingredients out of the bottle after 4 hours. This will prevent them from making the water taste bitter. When using citrus you should remove the rind/peel because they also have a bitter taste.
• How many times can you re-use the fruit in an infused water?
You can reuse the fruit for as long as the fruit isn’t turning bad. Each time you re-use the fruit in your infused water, you are going to lose flavor. The big trick is to add more water to your container when the water is half way down. That way, you mix the flavorful water with the new water.
Fruits with strong flavors, such as lemon, pineapple, and orange, are best for multiple infusions. Berries, melons, and fleshy fruits are not ideal because they decompose quickly.
• Can you eat the fruit after infusing water?
It is possible to eat the fruit after you’ve taken it out of the bottle, but it may taste a little bland and watery.
• How long can you keep fruit infused water in the fridge?
Once you’ve made your infusion, it will keep in the fridge for up to 3 days or you can freeze your infused water and enjoy a tasty treat weeks later.
And that’s all there is to it! Are you ready to try making your own infused water? Have a look at a few of our favorite recipes below!

I use frozen (triple berries) in my protein shakes, can I just fill my infuser with the frozen berries right from the freezer, or should I thaw them first before putting in my water bottle?
