Tips:
- You can use us a wooden spoon to slightly muddle the strawberries if preferred. This will help to release the juices from the strawberries. I think this really enhances the flavor even more.
- Try to use berries that are in season and sweet. This will give your drink more flavor with strawberries that are naturally sweet.
How to store:
- This strawberry water is best served the same day but you can also refrigerate the water for up to 3 days.
Since this water is so easy to make and requires so few ingredients, it is effortless to prepare. I suggest making it fresh and enjoying the same day.

- Lemons add another delicious flavor. You can use lemon slices or lemon juice. Check out this Easy Lemon Water Recipe.
- Try substituting sparkling water to change the flavor. This is a great variation when you are craving soda but want a healthier option. We enjoy this frequently.
- Other variations to try include: orange slices, lime slices and kiwi slices.
- Feel free to use any combination of these ideas or use them as substitutions.
Sweetener ideas to add

- Agave nectar
This is optional but you can add sweetener to the drink. It enhances the flavor even more.
