Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp pink grapefruit juice
  • fresh mint
  • carbonated water (optional)
  • liquid stevia (optional)
  • filtered water (I use water from my Brita*)

Instructions

  • Use a juicer or a reamer to juice the grapefruit.
  • Pick several leaves off the stalks of mint and rinse them in cool water.  Use your fingers to bruise them gently and put them in a glass with ice.
  • Add 2 tablespoons of grapefruit juice and 1 cup of filtered water and stir well to combine.
  • If you want to you can add a splash of carbonated water and/or a drop or two of liquid stevia (for sweetness).
  • You can also make larger quantities of this infused water and keep it in the fridge.** 
  • Enjoy! :)

Notes

*This is the Brita we have.  I love how it's such a cheap way to have filtered water all the time!
**If you plan to refrigerate this or keep it for more than a few hours, make sure you don't put grapefruit wedges in it (as pretty as they look) because the rind will make your water bitter over time.
