4th of July Orange + Lemon Infused Water

    Happy 4th of July!!! Today is one of my favorite holidays!  Orange + Lemon infused water is a refreshing drink to serve your guests at your 4th of July BBQ, Brunch or Dinner party.  It’s a great way to use up your lemons and oranges.  The citrus flavor is delicious! Bonus- It’s 100% healthy and not only are you keeping yourself hydrated with water (a must during summer days) you are getting the added benefit of a Vitamin C boost to keep you energized for a day of fun in the sun and a spectacular show of fireworks. Ingredients 2 slices of oranges cut into pieces 2 slices of lemon spritz a little orange into water spritz a little lemon into water let it chill for an hour or so and then enjoy! p.s- the longer the oranges and lemons infuse into the water the strong the taste 🙂   When you have drank the last drop of your orange and lemon infused water, please don’t let the fruit pieces go to waste. …
