Instructions
Add mint to bottom of a glass pitcher. Muddle slightly by mashing down on the mint 3-4 times with a wooden spoon.
Add strawberries, blueberries, and limes to the pitcher. Mix with mint.
Pour water into pitcher. Place in refrigerator overnight to infuse or chill for 10 minutes, stir, and serve over ice. If using for a party, reserve some of the lime slices, strawberries, and large mint leaves and garnish glass before serving.
Notes
If you are going to infuse the water for more than 2 hours, peel the limes before adding (or remove them after 2 hours). The peel sometimes makes the water bitter.Change it up by trying cucumber, lemon, or even jalapeno for a spicy drink!
