Check out these recipes from Farmacology Organics, I have always loved the Classical, but am really intrigued by the Watermelon. You do need to mix these in a glass pitcher for best results, plastic takes something away, for whatever reason. NOTE: All recipes start with 10 cups of water and should be left in the refrigerator overnight before serving. Now, put down that soda, hydrate yourself and enjoy!!
