Forget MIO!

Don't compromise yourself. It's all you've got.

i may be a little slow on the uptick for this posting
however, 
it's new to me so i'm going to share the awesomeness
when the think tank at kraft foods
came out with 
mio
i was totally suckered in.
not because i didn't drink water or needed a reason
to drink water.
i just thought hmmmmm tasty sweet water goodness.
i've tried them all
watermelon 
berry berry
fruit punch
tea
peach (nasty)
and i've come away with the same feeling every time.
meeeeeh.
so recently i decided why not add a little fruit
to the mix.
because when i order a seltzer water 
i always ask for a lemon.
and i did
in grandioso fashion i might add

oranges and lemon

all you have to do is slice them up

squish them up

add ice

add water

refrigerate

and 

boom!

you're done.

now i must admit i have made some fails.

one of the first ones i made was lemon lime.

nasty!

way to many limes and it came out extremely sour / tart / wicked gross

i also tried pineapple

it was ok, but really sweet 

maybe a little less on the pineapple next time.

the big winner was

strawberry and cucumber 

i'll make this again and i wish i had a picture it was so pretty

and really really goooooooood. 

so before you go splashing your water with 

processed crap

try adding a little sangria flair [minus the red wine and sugar]

your options are unlimited
