STAY HYDRATED WITH THESE WINTER INFUSED WATER RECIPES
It’s easy to forget to drink your water each day if it is cold outside, but your body needs water all year long! Snowball fights, sledding, and making snow angels all keep your body moving and use up some of the water you have inside you. Drink up and stay moving! (You even use up water while snuggled under a blanket with a good book by the fire!)
Infusing water is a tasty way to add nutrients to your water, not to mention that there are endless combinations you can use to make them more festive during the holiday season.
The following are some delicious Winter Infused Water Recipes:
