1. Mûre et Sauge

2. Blood Orange  Jal Jeera

   3 blood oranges
   2 sweet navel oranges
   5 clementines
   1 lime or lemon

   (makes about 1-1/2 cups juice)

   For every 1/2 cup of juice:

   1 tbsp cumin for dry roasting
   1 tsp black pepper, freshly ground
   1/2 tsp black salt
   1/4 tsp sea salt
   1/4 tsp dried mint powder
   1 tsp crushed jaggery /brown sugar
   1 1/2 cups cool water or room temperature
   fresh mint for garnish

   other:
   citrus juicer ~ optional

   How it’s done:

   Extract juice from all the citrus fruits including the blood oranges in a citrus juicer or squeeze by hand. Makes about 1-1/2 cups juice. For the Jal jeera, I have used 1-1/2 cups water for every 1/2 cup juice.

   Roast the cumin seeds in a skillet until fragrant and crackling without burning. Grind to a powder in a mortar and pestle and keep aside.

   Mix 1-1/2 cups cold water to 1/2 cup juice. Sprinkle roasted and freshly ground cumin, freshly ground black pepper, sea salt, black salt, jaggery and dried mint crushed between your fingers and thumb.

   Taste and adjust spices, salt and jaggery as needed or add more juice or water to suit your taste. Jaggery neutralizes salty, sour and hot tastes. So adjust accordingly.

   Serve cold garnished with a sprig of fresh mint

5. Strawberry Spa Water
   Ingredients

   • 1 lb strawberries, hulled and sliced
   • 1 pitcher filtered water
   • ice

    
   Instructions

   1. Add strawberries and water to pitcher. Cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or up to overnight.

6. Blackberry Mint Infused Water

   There really is no exact recipe for the infused water.  All I did some mash about a handful of blackberries releasing their juices into a pitcher.  Then I rubbed the mint in my hands to release the oils and placed them in the same pitcher.  Just add water and let infuse for at least 2 hours.  I recommend over night for full flavor.

7. Passionfruit Cooler

   • 5-6 whole Mint Leaves
   • 2 Tablespoons Sugar
   • 1 ounce (30ml) fresh Lime Juice
   • 1 Tablespoon fresh Passionfruit Juice *see note 1 for extracting
   • 6 ounces (180ml) Water

   Directions:

   1. Muddle the mint leaves, sugar, and lime juice together.
   2. Add passionfruit juice and water to the muddled mix. (Add passionfruit seeds if you are so inclined)  Pour into glasses filled with ice.

8. Raspberry Lemon

   2 cups organic raspberries

   8 cups (64 ounces) spring or filtered water

   1 large organic lemon—cut into ½- inch slices

   2 dried Medjool dates (optional but adds nice sweetness to the water)

   1 drop lemon essential oil-optional 

   1 gallon clean glass jar with lid (here’s a good option)

    

   1. Place raspberries into the bottom of your jar. Add the dates if using then layer the lemon slices on top. Pour water into jar and place lid on top.

   2. Place water into the refrigerator and let infuse for 1 hour. Remove the lemon slices and squeeze their juice into the infused raspberry lemon water. I like to remove the lemon slices after 1 hour so the water doesn’t get too bitter from the rinds.

   3. Add the lemon essential oil drop into the jar. Stir the water with a spoon, cover with a lid and put water back into the refrigerator overnight for the best flavor.   You can leave the raspberries and dates in the infused water for up to 2 days before you need to strain them out of the water.  You can eat or compost the raspberries and dates rather than just throwing them away.
