Delicious ginger and lime infused water for an easy summer drink. www.cupcakesandcutlery.comWelcome to water week.  Huh, you say… I really don’t know what else to call it.  So water week it is.  But it isn’t just like, boring old water.  These waters are fruit infused and super refreshing.  I drink this kind of stuff all summer long so I thought I would share them with you.  I was browsing through a super old cocktail book of my grandmother’s the other day and one of the recipes called for muddled lemon.  And I thought to myself, now if that isn’t the easiest way ever to make lemonade, I don’t know what is.  So this week I’ll be sharing 3 recipes for easy muddled fruit ades.  Today I kick it off with a Muddled Ginger Limeade Recipe.

Muddled Ginger Limeade Recipe. Perfect for summer! // www.cupcakesandcutlery.comGinger and lime are my go to flavors.  All of my favorite cocktails have one or both of these included.  You may remember I shared a similar recipe last year.  But that one had fizzy water and was more about the flavors being really subtle.  This muddled ginger limeade is about really tasting the flavors.  But as always I love that these recipes can be made for your personal flavor preferences.

Honest fruit and veggie wash is awesome! // www.cupcakesandcutlery.comFirst things first.  I’m not all the concerned about buying organic fruits.  To be honest, I can’t afford it.  And usually I’m not too concerned about the toxicity of my limes, since I’m just using the juice.  But since the rind and all will be in the beverage, I wanted to make sure to do what I could to remove anything grody from the skin.  I used my Honest Fruit and Veg wash (I LOVE this stuff!!) and then I was good to go.  Totally not sponsored, I just really love it.

Muddle ginger and lime, add water and sweetener and make a delicious limeade. // www.cupcakesandcutlery.comDo you own a muddler?  I’m fancy.  I have a set of 3.  I’m sure they each serve a specific purpose but to me they just look cool.  And sometimes it is a struggle to get all that delicious juicy goodness out of the citrus.  A muddler does it with ease.  If you don’t have one, get one.  I simply don’t know how I survived without one!  (Ok, I’ll stop being so dramatic).

Top muddled ginger and limes with water for a refreshing summery beverage. // www.cupcakesandcutlery.comOnce you have muddled the fruit, you can add your sweetener of choice.  I prefer and agave nectar since it dissolves better in liquids than sugar.  Play around with the amounts you need to suit your taste.  I use a tiny amount or none at all since I like my drinks a little on the bitter side.  I find this really odd considering I have a sweet tooth the size of Texas.

Muddled Ginger Limeade. Delicious! // www.cupcakesandcutlery.comThis muddled ginger limeade is delicious!  I think it would also be really great topped with a little fizzy water also.  And probably would be great with some sort of vodka or rum or something.

Easy fruit infused waters for summer using muddled fruit. // www.cupcakesandcutlery.comI’ll have more muddled ade recipes on Wednesday and Friday so don’t forget to come back!  Don’t forget to check out this old post about muddling fresh herbs in your lemonade.
