Stir and let them steep in the refrigerator overnight\u2014at least 4 hours.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h6>Presentation<\/h6>\n<p>Using a fine tea strainer, a coffee filter, or a fine strainer, pour your infused water into your prettiest glasses or water bottle for the office.
