Home & Hearth - Luscious Herb & Fruit Infused Coconut Water

A delicious treat to beat the heat!

Oh, the heat is just awful today, isn't it? Here in Pittsburgh where I’m visiting family, it's a scorching 88 degrees with the humidity at a whopping 100 percent. And wouldn't you know it, my hot flashes always seem to make a grand appearance in weather like this.

But fear not, for I have a magical recipe that will whisk away the heat and leave you feeling refreshed and revitalized. Behold, the enchanting elixir of fruit and herb-infused coconut water! Picture it now, a mason jar brimming with coconut water, infused with a medley of luscious fruits and aromatic herbs.

A touch of minty freshness, a sprinkle of sage's wisdom, or the delicate allure of rose petals? The choice is yours, but don't forget the vibrant bursts of flavor from cucumbers, berries, watermelon, cantaloupe, and citrus. It's a symphony of tastes and scents that will transport you to a cool oasis in the midst of the sweltering heat.

So, grab your mason jar, fill it with coconut water (or plain if coconut's not your cup of tea), and let the magic begin. Muddle your chosen fruits, herbs, and spices, let them steep in the coconut water for a spell, and then add a sprinkle of ice to chill your elixir to perfection.

Sip slowly, savor the flavors, and let the heat melt away as you bask in the refreshing embrace of this delightful potion. And who knows, maybe even the little ones in your life will be captivated by its spell, just like my grandson who devours his coconut water infused with watermelon and berries with pure joy. Sometimes, I turn this into homemade popsicles for him , which he loves!

So go on, embrace the magic of fruit and herb-infused coconut water, and let its cool fruitiness soothe your soul on this hot, humid day. 🪭🌿🍉🫐🌞
