Blackberry Mint Infused Water Recipe

You will need:

  • 1 small handful of blackberries
  • 5-6 mint leaves
  • Ice
  • Water

Directions:

  • Add the blackberries to a mason jar.
  • Muddle them slightly by gently moving them around the jar with a straw or spoon.
  • Muddle the mint leaves by rubbing them between your thumb and first finger.
  • Add the mint leaves to the mason jar.
  • Fill the mason jar with chilled water from your cooler or filter.
  • Cover the jar and place in the fridge for at least two hours*.

*Two hours is the minimum steep time; it is preferable to let the infusion sit overnight.

Fresh or frozen blackberries work fine in this recipe. If you use frozen berries, allow for a little longer steeping time. You can add a natural sweetener like stevia, monk fruit, or honey to sweeten the drink. If you are short on time, you can make a large pitcher that lasts 2-3 days in the refrigerator. For an extra twist, try using Mountain Valley Spring Water Blackberry Pomegranate Sparkling water instead of plain still water.
