3 Ways To Dress Up Your Summer Water

I like playing dress up. I like drinking icy cold (crushed ice, not cubed) water.
So merging the two just makes sense. 
Here are a few of my most-loved choices!

1. Mint & Rose water. Add just a few petals from new rose blooms 
and several sprigs of mint. There's just a slight hint of rose mingled 
with the mint, that makes a perfect blend. It'll be a win-win.

2. Sweet Basil & Blackberries. Add 3-4 fresh or frozen blackberries 
and 3-4 sprigs of sweet basil. On the rim of the glass, add a tiny bit 
of large grain sugar, if you need a tad more sweet. Colored sugar would
be pretty too. I usually find myself adding more sweet basil 
because it's just that fragrant.

3. Variegated Pink Lemons + Thyme. A whisper (a whisper?) of pink lemonade 
mixed with 1-2 fresh thyme stems. So wonderful, you're totally going to
 impress your mother-in-law at your next dinner soiree. Hoo-ray!
