Good content, but tedious to navigate
I was given this book at no cost to give an honest review. It is a very interesting (and short) read and inspired me to begin right away with infused waters. I love plain water, but don't drink nearly enough. This is a great way to include some variety in my water drinking. The content of the book is good and the recipes very simple (and creative). My only complaint and is why I only gave it 4 stars is not with the content, as with the set up. It is not easy to navigate on an e-reader. I downloaded it for my Kindle and I can only "go to" the cover page, table of contents or end. The pages of recipes, chapters are listed in the table of contents, but instead of being able to click on the page # or touch link, you have to scroll through the entire book to the page. Similar to a real paper book where you turn the pages. However, with an e-reader, it is time consuming to have to scroll and scroll to get to a recipe. Except for that small thing, it is a good book and I am sure I will make very good use of the recipes. I recommend it as long as you are aware it is a basic pdf document.

Very skimpy book with no picture. Cursory description of recipes.

like the author
I was given this book in exchange of my honest review. So I will be completely honest and tell you that I have not read ALL of it, but... I just haven't been making that many infused waters yet :)I still think this is a book worth having, especially if, like the author, you have a soda addiction. I myself quit fizzy drinks many years ago, just on the premise that they're too sweet and unhealthy. I've never had a strong attachment to them per se, but we all know how the habit can get the better of us sometimes. It's not always easy to substitute sodas either, and I find the commercially flavoured waters to be too sweet or taste too chemically, so these recipes are most welcome for me.I did stop drinking sodas of all sorts and substitute with water or unsweetened home-made ice tea and I felt much better: no bloating, no reflux or tiny burps from the carbonation, and I actually felt like I was doing something good for my body. I got so used to the lack of sugar, that even the store-bought fruit juices are often too sweet for me so I dilute them with some sparkling water. But it would be so much easier and beneficial to just have a nice glass of blueberry or basil&mango water at hand :)

Awesome recipes!
I received an advanced copy of this book in exchange for my honest review. I love cookbooks, and this one is great. I like that the recipes are categorized based on the number of ingredients. While, the health benefits of each ingredient are listed individually in the back of the book, it would have been more user friendly to have the recipes organized based on the primary health benefits. All in all, it's a great book, with great background and nutritional information.

Water doesn't have to be boring!
I received an advanced copy of this book in exchange for my honest review. I just recently discovered infused water and was looking for more recipes to jazz up my water. This book is great! It contains recipes that the kids enjoyed as much as I did. I would highly recommend this book to anyone looking to increase their water intake but thinks water is boring.

Great recipes!
I received a free e-book and I must say, I really enjoyed the recipes! There were numerous fruit and herb combinations I would have never thought to put together but how lovely! A wonderful alternative to flavoring water no doubt!

Instructive and Interesting
Delicious Detox Drinks: How to Make 101 Fruit-Infused Waters by Hailey Murray - ReviewI was curious to know about infused water and gained all the knowledge about it in this book.Hailey has written a comprehensive book about the benefits of plain and infused water and how to make them - as it turns out, it's surprisingly, smilingly easy. :-)There are 101 recipes here and Hailey encourages us to experiment and try out our own ideas.I'll certainly be trying some of them and definitely be drinking more water, both plain and infused.Highly recommended.(I received a free copy of this book in return for my honest review.)
