This is great for people who like a little flavor in their water.  I always ask for lemon when I get a glass of water in a restaurant.

I dont put fruit in, as to me it doesnt give enough taste, however whenever I eat an orange, I take a chunk of the peel and drop it in my water, that for sure gives lots of taste :)

I've heard of it, but never tried it. Sounds delicious and refreshing. Only thing close I had to fruit infused water was lemon water.

I tried it a couple of times and it actually taste good, but I don't drink it all the time though. I also like to drink plain water while squeezing lemons in it to give it some flavor.
Would you you be willing to recommend any recipe that you like in particular?  Im going to attempt this "healthy lifestyle"  and stop myself from drinking so many sugary drinks.

I sometimes squeeze lime juice into my water.  It's good for the liver and makes it taste good.  I want to get an infuser bottle.

I drink flavored waters - including ones store purchased ones and packets where I would place a mixer into water, but I'm thinking this is something different. If this is a brewing in a different sense I would be interested, but I would be curious of the health benefits if any.

I've tried them, but really not a huge fan.  It's not bad, I just like the taste of plain filtered water.  What I don't like about the infused ones is there's not enough flavor to really taste the infused fruit so the water just tastes "off" to me.

I like lemon or cucumber in my water in the summer time. Of course I have to have a lot of ice too. Our water is not the best unless it is ice cold. Both of these items make the water have a better taste. As for the rest of the fruit I have never  used them.  I am not one for soda pop or sugared drinks including tea . So a flavored ice tea (lemon) is good also.

I don't really care for fruit infused water. It just tastes "off" to me. I either want something bad for me, lol, or plain water. I don't like the compromise.

I have had lemon water and orange water, but not cucumbers.  That sounds very refreshing.

My daughter does this with kiwi and strawberries.
I tasted it, and it was ok, but for me personally, I'd rather just drink the water and eat the fruit.

At restaurants I like to have a slice or two of lemon in my water.  Usually restaurant water doesn't taste as good as my water from my tap at home...we have a reverse osmosis system to filter it.
