Antioxidant Rich Flavored Waters

I just started making waters flavored with antioxidant rich ingredients such as fresh turmeric and ginger and another water with goji berries. These waters are a great way to stay hydrated while replacing important nutrients. Here is the recipe for making Ginger Turmeric Water and Goji Berry Water:

Ginger Turmeric Tonic Water

4 cups filtered or spring water
1/3 cup fresh lemon juice
2-inches fresh ginger, scrubbed
3-inches fresh turmeric, scrubbed
Cayenne to taste

Blend: In a blender, put all the ingredients and blend completely.

Strain and put into a glass bottle: Put a large mesh strainer over a bowl, pour in the blended water and strain. Pour the strained water into a wine bottle or other glass container. Sip throughout the day.

Store: Store in a glass jar in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.

Goji Berry Water

4 cups filtered or spring water
1/2 goji berries

Blend: In a blender, put the water and goji berries and blend completely.

Strain and put into a glass bottle: Put a large mesh strainer over a bowl, pour in the blended goji water and strain. Pour the strained water into a wine bottle or other glass container.

How to Serve: Sip throughout the day.

Store: Store in a glass jar in the refrigerator for 1 days.
