But what can beat the summer heat? It’s not really that difficult: Just mix fruits with your water; it’s the next best thing to just drinking plain water that can help prevent dehydration.

According to an article publish in http://www.positivehealth.com/, this process of mixing fruits with your water is called fruit-infused water, also known as “Aguas Frescas” which is derived from the Spanish culture where beverage is made with fruits, rice and cereals to sweeten the water.

Mixing of fruits in your water can help you provide the needed nutrients of your body. It can also help your skin look young, soft and healthy. It is also said that this infused water is rich in antioxidants and vitamins.

Studies have shown that drinking water naturally can boost your metabolism, and drinking fruit-infused water for weight loss can be an easy way to increase your water intake.

At this point, I’ve actually noticed the results after drinking this natural flavored water. I just started drinking this infused water early month of February, and in a span of three months I’ve actually noticed that I am losing weight. (Hooray! I’ve actually been dreaming of this for a while. )

Want to try this mouth-watering, nourishing and healthy fruit drink? You can create your own now! Just add your desired chopped fruits, and/or vegetables and herbs in your water, and leave it on the fridge for two to eight hours depending on how strong the flavor you want it to be and viola! You can now enjoy your own natural flavored water.
