Hello, young Padawan
There’s nothing better than a good infused water to refresh you in the summer. You know we love it here on the blog; we make it in all kinds of ways!
Today’s drink reminds me of Marseille, a city in southern France, where you often drink Pastis, an anise-flavored beverage. So, for those who don’t like anise or Pastis, I can reassure you right away that I hate it too, but I love this infused water because the flavor is very light; on the contrary, it brings just the right amount of freshness to our summer.
So, here we go with this Marseille-infused water!
Fresh infused water
5 star anise
Half a ripe peach
2 liters of filtered water
Optional: A few ice cubes.
Recipe
Wash the peach half, then cut it into very thin slices using a sharp knife to minimize mess. Be careful not to cut yourself.
In a large carafe, place the thin peach slices and star anise, then add the filtered water. Cover and refrigerate for at least six hours, ideally overnight.
Presentation
Using a fine tea strainer, a fine strainer, or a coffee filter, pour your infused water into your prettiest glasses or water bottle for the office. Add a few ice cubes for an “aperitif” effect.
Keep refrigerated for 24 hours.
And that’s it for this sublime infused water, both subtle and refreshing. Have a great summer, whether you’re on vacation or at the office. We’ll see you next Friday!
P.S.: If you’re on vacation, don’t forget the reading section of this blog right here, where you’ll find plenty of great book recommendations!
