Healthy Coconut Water Strawberry Infused Lemonade Recipe (And Win a Free Glasstic Water Bottle!)

Good hydration is essential to feeling fit. I admit, I am not always consistent at drinking water. While I enjoy a glass of ice water, I also like to mix it up with infused waters.

From time to time, I enjoy coconut water (especially in the Summer). I find it very refreshing and if I sip it during a workout it seems to help me maintain my stamina. This recipe is actually a result of my experimenting with a tasty drink I can enjoy on-to-go or in the gym. The ratios are based on a personal water bottle, but you can easily adapt it to a pitcher or multi-serving container.

Glasstic has provided one of their Shatterproof Glass Water Bottles to review. I have found the Glasstic bottles are perfect for strongly flavored drinks like this. Because the inner bottle is glass, I can fully clean it between use so the next beverage has a fresh bottle.

And you are also in luck! Glasstic has generously offered to give one lucky Feeling Fit reader a Glasstic Shatterproof Water Bottle! To enter, visit the giveaway widget after the recipe for Coconut Water Strawberry Infused Lemonade.

Healthy Coconut Water Strawberry Infused Lemonade Recipe (And Win a Free Glasstic Water Bottle!)

Ingredients

• Unsweetened Coconut Water
• Fresh Water
• 1 Strawberry per serving sliced (may add more to taste!)
• 1-3 lemon slices per serving
• 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice (optional)

Instructions

1. I typically use a ratio of 1-1 for the coconut water and plain water. I do this because I find the coconut water a little too sweet and it is expensive. Mixing stretches it farther and reduces the sweetness.
2. Add the fresh water to your bottle
3. Add Lemon slices to the bottle
4. Optional: Squeeze a little fresh lemon juice into the bottle if you want a more immediate lemon flavor
5. Add strawberry slices
6. Top up with coconut water
7. Optional: If mixing in a water bottle put the lid on a shake it up.
8. Ideally, allow this to infuse at least an hour (or overnight!). However, you may drink this right away, the fruit flavors grow stronger when allowed time to infuse into the waters.

My Thoughts on my Glasstic Water Bottle:  

 

  On the go with coconut water infuse with lemon and strawberry in my Glasstic water bottle. I will share my recipe for a healthier alternative strawberry lemonade and my thoughts on Glasstic later this week. @glassticbottle #fitfam #sweatpink #fitfluential #lemonade #coconut #infusedwater #bloggersperks   A photo posted by Slysam Feeling Fit (@slysamblogs) on Jun 24, 2015 at 3:45pm PDT

Spoiler alert — I love this water bottle. In my opinion it offers the benefits of a plastic water bottle and the benefits of a glass water bottle. I think it is a very creative and useful product. I recorded a video review sharing my thoughts.

Just in case you prefer a written review, the primary benefits of this style of bottle are:

• You drink from a glass bottle rather than plastic. It can be used with hot or cold drinks and is easily cleaned with a bottle brush (glass is less likely to retain flavors).
• This design is more safe than a typical glass bottle as the glass is encased within a plastic outer-wall for protection and to contain the glass if it should break.
• The glass inner bottle and plastic outer bottle create a double walled effect that helps maintain the liquid’s temperature.

I only experienced one small disadvantage:

• This bottle is considerably larger compared to the volume of liquid it can carry, so it takes more room in my bag. Given the other benefits, I am okay with that but decided to mention it in interest of fairness and full disclosure.

I am not the most mechanically inclined person and had a slight difficulty figuring out how to disassemble my Glasstic bottle. When it arrived, it contained a product information sheet between the glass and plastic wall. I also clean everything before use. To save you time, here is a short demonstration of how to assemble and disassemble the bottle.
