Wedding Reception Idea: Fruit-Infused Water Recipes

July 06,2024

After you've come up with the signature cocktails for your reception and refined the dinner wine list, dedicate some time to thinking about nonalcoholic drinks to impress. My fiancé's not much of a drinker, so I've been giving the category a lot of thought. He freaks out over a pitcher of fruit-infused water the way I do over a bottle of good red wine, so I thought what better way to make sure guests like him (and under-21 revelers, duh) are happy and hydrated. The most yummy-sounding five I stumbled on: Raspberry, mint, and lime Anyone that loves the flavor of lime will be all about this combo. Slice a lime into thin disks, lightly smash a pint of raspberries, and pull the leaves of a small bunch of mint before pouring water over it all. Blackberry, cherry, and lime This Lauren Conrad-approved mix has a pretty, faint pink hue if you mix it all and let it set in the fridge overnight. Slice the lime into rounds and pull the stems off cherries before combining. Watermelon and rosemary Sweet-tooth types will like this combo from the Yummy Life: Add a single sprig of rosemary and muddle very lightly before.
