Blueberry Water

This blueberry water makes a nice, refreshing alternative when I feel bored with plain water. Granted fruit infused water doesn't allow for the fiber and other nutrients to be fully utilized by the body in the way eating whole fruit does; however, I'm okay with that because I know I'm getting all those nutrients in the other food I'm eating. And it's so easy to make! Blueberry Water   1 cup blueberries, frozen or fresh 60 ounces water*   Place the blueberries in a large pitcher and cover with water.   Let steep overnight in the refrigerator.   Refill the pitcher a few times to get the most out of the berries.   Note: Berries can then be used in a smoothie, if desired. * I use the same amount of blueberries whether I'm using a 48-ounce or 60-ounce pitcher. You just can't get as many infusions - refills of water - from the 60-ounce as the 48-ounce, generally speaking. Adjust amount of water according to the size of your pitcher.
