It’s so easy to forget about staying hydrated when the weather gets colder.

So many of us are super busy this time of the year, rushing around getting ready for the holidays. Since it’s not super hot outside, it makes it really easy to forget that we need to drink water.

I know it’s easy for me to forget. I have to portion my daily water intake into quart mason jars every day so I don’t forget to drink my water. Otherwise, I forget.

It’s easy to get kind of bored with plain water, especially when it’s cold outside.

You can easily solve that! There’s nothing more satisfying than festive healthy infused water!

This time of the year everyone is making holiday cookies, peppermint goodies and sweet treats, planning holiday menus and getting ready to serve guests at holiday parties.

Often hot chocolate is served or fancy holiday drinks, but they’re not always kid-friendly and they’re almost never hydrating.

We need that good ole water to keep us hydrated, but also to help our body detox and flush all of those indulgent foods out.

Ingredients

Cinnamon Pear:

Orange Pomegranate:

  • 2 small organic oranges - sliced and seeds removed
  • 1 organic pomegranate - white pith discarded, arils removed

Apple Cinnamon Pomegranate:

  • 2 organic apples - cored and sliced
  • 1 organic pomegranate - white pith discarded, arils removed
  • 2-3 cinnamon sticks

For the Infused Waters:

  • 6-8 cups filtered water
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt
  • optional (<-- this is my favorite sea salt)
  • Trace mineral drops - optional

Instructions

  1. Wash all produce and prep as needed. 
  2. Add the fruit or fruit and cinnamon sticks to large pitcher or 8-cup mason jar. Top with filtered water. Add the optional sea salt and trace mineral drops. Allow to steep for at least 30 minutes at room temperature or in the refrigerator if you prefer chilled water.

Notes

  • Storage: Can be stored in the refrigerator up to 2 days. 
  • For the pomegranate flavors, if you'd like a little extra pink hue for the water, use your fingers to pop several of the pomegranate arils allowing the juice to go into the water. If you have kids, they love to help do this.

  7. You make such a good point, that most holiday drinks are not hydrating. Plus, for me, they can be too filling. I love that simple is best sometimes, and this totally hits the mark, so lovely and simple and love that sea salt! How appealing at a gathering!

    • Right? I think it’s so easy for us to forget when we’re enjoying the other drinks – but we also need the hydrating ones. I bet you could make them festive for you without the fruit and use some herbs instead. 🙂 xo

  17. It’s so hard to remember to stay hydrated during the holidays when we’re all so busy, and often, drinking more dehydrating beverages than normal! I usually make water like this when I have parties and I find people do drink so much more of it than regular water!
