1- Pineapple and ginger water
Pineapple adds a sweet, fruity taste to this infused water and keeps plain water from becoming a chore in our daily routine. It gives our drink body and flavour. Flawless!
As for ginger, it adds a fragrant, spicy note to the drink.
Ingredients
- 3 slices of fresh pineapple
- 1 tbsp grated fresh ginger
- Mineral water
Preparation
For this recipe, all you need to do is mix the pineapple and ginger together, before adding water and possibly ice cubes.
You can then sip it throughout the day!
2- Celery and lemon juice
We choose lemon here for its tangy freshness. It brings the zing of fresh citrus to our juice, a pleasant touch in our daily routine.
As for celery, very low in calories, it is rich in fibre and adds a green note that goes well with lemon, for a fresh drink you’ll enjoy sipping throughout the day.
Ingredients
- 1 L of mineral water
- 200 g of celery stalks
- 500 g of organic lemons
Preparation
- To start, wash and cut the celery before cooking it in mineral water, with the lemon juice and zest.
- Bring to the boil and cook for around twenty minutes.
- Then strain the mixture and, depending on your taste, add a natural sweetener if you like (honey, stevia, etc.).
- Then place your drink in the fridge and sip it throughout the day!
3- Cranberry tea
Cranberries are known for their tangy flavour and pretty colour, perfect for brightening up our tea. For increased enjoyment, combine cranberries with green tea and lemon. With all this, our tea break will be a real treat!
Ingredients
- 25 cl of water
- 1 bag of green tea
- 5 cl of lemon juice
- 30 g cranberries
- 1 tsp honey
Preparation
Bring the water to a boil, and pour it over the tea, lemon juice, honey and cranberries. To be enjoyed hot, on cooler days!
4- Citrus water with cucumber and mint
Cucumber, mint, lemon and orange make up this fresh, light infused water, which you can prepare ahead.
Ingredients
- 700 ml of fresh water
- ½ sliced cucumber
- a few mint leaves
- ½ lemon, sliced
- ½ orange, sliced
Preparation
Simply place all the ingredients in water, in a closed bottle then let everything rest for two hours in the refrigerator so that their flavours can infuse into the water.
You can enjoy this drink throughout the day. Fresh and light, it makes drinking water easier, keeps plain water from getting boring and makes a simple habit to fit into your daily routine!
5- Water to sip between meals
Snacking is definitely not our ally when we want to look after our figure! Between meals, opt instead for this delicious flavoured drink.
Ingredients
- 700 ml of fresh water
- mint leaves
- 2 chopped strawberries
- ½ lemon, sliced
- ¼ thinly sliced apple
- a little cinnamon

Place all the ingredients in a bottle, add the water and place in the fridge for 2 hours. This fragrant, lightly fruity drink will be a pleasant option to sip between your meals!
Which water should you use for your homemade drinks?
Every recipe in this article starts with a simple base: water. Mineral water is used for the pineapple water and the celery and lemon juice, and fresh water for the citrus and strawberry flavoured waters. The cranberry tea, meanwhile, is made with boiling water. There’s no such thing as a ‘magic’ water: the idea is simply to drink regularly, in small sips, throughout the day.
These homemade drinks make that habit more enjoyable, as they add flavour without fizzy drinks or squash. If you’d like to sweeten them, go for just a touch of honey or stevia, as in the recipes above. Then vary the fruit to suit your taste and the season.
