Thank you to PUR for providing me with product, free of charge, in exchange for an honest blog review. All opinions are 100% my own.

Around here in Minnesota, we’re entering the “Dog Days Of Summer”. The heat has really kicked in and we’ll be reaching the highest temps of the Summer during the next month or so. It’s the kind of temps and humidity where you break a sweat just standing outside! So, I tend to hide out in the air conditioned house as much as possible. However, with five young kids who enjoy the outdoors, we do spend a fair share of time outside too. So it’s more important than ever to stay hydrated. A great way to get that extra water in is by using our PUR Ultimate 11 Cup Water Pitcher With LED.

While I actually love the taste of ice cold water, many people prefer other beverages because they feel that water is too plain. So a great compromise is flavored water! All the benefits of water while still having a burst of flavor. A recent PUR study found that 55% of Americans infuse their water with natural flavors like fresh fruit and favored ice cubes. So here’s some fun recipes to try:

Strawberry and Basil:

½ cup sliced strawberries

A couple leaves of fresh basil

Fill pitcher with PUR filtered water – ensuring you’re consuming great tasting water!

Add slices to pitcher, add filtered water, stir around with wooden spoon

Refrigerate for 2-3 hours. Add basil about 15 minutes before serving. Use the wooden spoon to press the leaves to release flavor.

Pineapple, Lemon and Mint:

½ cup fresh pineapple, cored and sliced, or cubed

½ lemon, sliced

A couple leaves of fresh mint

Fill pitcher with PUR filtered water – ensuring you’re consuming great tasting water!

Add cubes and slices to pitcher, add filtered water, stir around with wooden spoon

Refrigerate for 2-3 hours. Add mint about 15 minutes before serving. Use the wooden spoon to press the leaves to release flavor.

We love our PUR Water Filtration Systems because it allows us to drink our own well water without the mineral like taste non-filtered leaves behind. We are also saving money by purchasing less bottled water. Instead, we just fill up our Stainless Steel water bottles when heading out for the day. The filters are easy to change and the pitchers are easy to fill. Water is filtered through quite fast and we are enjoying a glass of crisp refreshing water in no time!
