Infused Waters, Family Favorite

I started playing around this summer looking for a juice alternative and fell in love with infused waters.  They are easy to make and taste so great your whole family will love them.  These delicious infused waters are a wonderful way to stay hydrated on a hot day or when your child isn’t feeling well and needs extra hydration. They have a yummy hint of flavor, but without the high sugar and calorie content of juice. Your baby, and the rest of your family, will love the refreshing taste of these waters!
