This is all the incentive you need to get your family to drink more water. I keep our Lemonade Jar on the counter, and it looks beautiful. Most days we fill it with ice and add some fruit, vegetable, or spice to the water. Every time we walk into the kitchen, we’re enticed to drink a glass.

Our favorite add-ins:

• Fresh spearmint, which grows wild in our garden
• Sliced cucumbers – so refreshing and healthy
• Lemon slices – just enough to give the water the perfect twang.

A lesson we learned the hard way: you can find cheaper jars, but make sure they have a foolproof spigot. We discovered the messy way that the spigots that screw open and closed just don’t cut it!

Global Amici Lemonade Jar with Spigot is available online at Amazon.com
