Strawberry infused water, oh my!

Well over the last few months due to some health reasons I've been trying to give up my horrible diet coke addiction! Don't get me started on how horrible the stuff is for you,.. However I still managed to slurp a good 2-4 diet sodas a day down shamelessly! I finally decided it had to stop! So even though I had been substituting my caffeine need with tea or coffee, I needed a filler drink! Something that would help me get my water intake without feeling like I was drinking water,... (I don't care for water) :/ I know I know horrible huh?!! 

Well I grabbed my kids koolaid pitcher, a handful of fresh strawberries and my truvia sugar**! I sliced the strawberries in fours, cut off the tops to trash and threw them in the pitcher then I added 1 quart of water with ice. After that, I poured my drink (making sure to get fruit in my glass) and used one truvia packet! It was delish!!! Just to note my second glass I cut it down to half a pack of truvia and it was just as good!

**(For those of you that don't know truvia is a zero calorie sweetener derived from the stevia plant! It's the best for you artificial sweeter there is! I like the green/white box one!) 

The end result! Zero calories! Vitamins infused right into my water without the preservatives and a healthy tasty drink you can have every day! 

Homemade vitamin water? Yes please! 


Until next time!
