Receta Cucumber, Thyme, and Tangerine Infu
Now that life is back to normal and things have slowed down from vacation and the holidays I can step back and breath. Get my house in order, in more ways than one. When I look out the window here in Maine, it’s typically pretty gloomy. We’ve been lucky so far and we haven’t gotten much snow or cold weather, but it’s here now and I’m over it. So, I’m cheering myself up and bringing the sunshine inside and brightening things up with some cool cucumber and fresh citrus flavor. I love the addition of the thyme. I would have never thought of it and I had some from the holidays I wanted to use up anyways. I also love bringing out my geeky beaker pitcher when I get the chance!
So, whether you need some citrus sunshine in your life or to add some life to all of that water you’re drinking because of your “eat better” resolutions. Try this wonderful infused water and some other great ones out there as well! While there is a recipe, you really just keep the ratios right with however much water you are using and you’ll be set. That’s the great thing about infused waters, you can’t go too wrong!
