What You Need To Make Pomegranate and Mint Flavored Water

This pomegranate and mint infused water is ultra simple to make. You’ll only need three ingredients.

  • Pomegranate Seeds- You’ll need one cup of seeds (arils). One large pomegranate should produce enough. You can also purchase the seeds separately.
  • Mint– Use four mint sprigs to add a nice refreshing flavor.
  • Filtered Water– You’ll want to use 6 cups of water.

You’ll also need a pitcher and a long wooden spoon.

How To Make Pomegranate and Mint Flavored Water

You’ll be able to enjoy this refreshing drink after following two simple steps.

STEP ONE: MUDDLE SEEDS AND MINT

Add the pomegranate seeds and mint to a pitcher and muddle them with the end of a wooden spoon. This step is important to release the juices from the pomegranate seeds and the oils from the mint.

STEP TWO: ADD FILTERED WATER AND CHILL

You’ll next add 6 cups of filtered water to the pitcher. Place in the fridge for at least an hour to chill and allow the flavors to infuse into the water. Chilling overnight will result in more flavor.

Finally, you have the option to add a few teaspoons of honey and/or a squeeze of fresh lemon.
