Fruit infused water is a simple drink made by steeping fresh fruit in cold water. This version uses pineapple, watermelon, apple, and blueberries for a mild, lightly sweet flavor. It’s an easy way to drink more water and stay hydrated without added sugar, especially on warm days. It can be made ahead and kept chilled in the fridge.
Serve this fruit-infused water well chilled, with ice. Refill the pitcher with water once or twice before replacing the fruit. A fruit infuser pitcher helps keep the fruit contained while pouring.
If you enjoy infused water, you can also browse the drinks category or try the infused water with cucumber, lemon, and mint.
How to Make Fruit-Infused Water
Cut the fruit, add it to a pitcher, and pour over cold water. Let it rest in the fridge until the flavor develops, then serve over ice.
You can adjust the fruit ratios or swap in what you have on hand, keeping the total fruit around 1½ to 2 cups per 6 cups of water.
