5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful way to add more water to your diet! July 18, 2010

I first saw this pitcher when I was looking for the same thing but with an ice core instead of the infusion core (which just happens to be made by the same company). I thought it was a great concept; and since I'm always looking for ways to add more water to my diet (without having to drink plain old ordinary water), I decided to give it a try. I was immediately hooked!

Here are a couple of things that I've observed:

Distilled water works best.

Depending upon what type of fruit you use in the core, it can take up to two days (or more) to get a really good infusion. Citrus fruits tend to take longer to infuse than berries.

It's a good idea to add water to it each time you pour yourself a glass. Two reasons: first, the newly added water will mix with the already-infused water and will take less time to become flavored. If you wait until the pitcher's mostly empty, it'll take a while to get a good infusion. Second, a smaller amount of "new" water will take less time to chill than if you were to add a whole bunch of new water.

And here's a hint: If you make your own lemonade (from scratch), try using orange-infused water to your lemon juice instead of plain, unflavored water. It adds a wonderful touch of "something" that you can't put your finger on (you KNOW there's something else in the lemonade, but you just can't figure out WHAT).

And, lastly, a suggestion: don't wait for berries to come into season! Just use frozen ones (strawberries, raspberries, mixed berries, etc.) Because they've been frozen, they tend to infuse better than fresh ones. I recently used half a package of frozen raspberries. As they thawed they immediately began to turn the water red and by the time they were completely thawed, I had a lovely shade of red raspberry water. Being a "sweetaholic", I add a packet of stevia (AKA Truvia, but I prefer the Whole Foods brand of stevia) to my raspberry water and it tastes like a healthier version of raspberry Kool-Aid!

2.0 out of 5 stars Slowly cracks over time & Overpriced January 30, 2011

By J. Kinscherff

Let me start off by saying that I have never reviewed on amazon before, but felt compelled after buying this pitcher. I treat every item I own very delicately (I am a very poor grad student) and yet over time this pitcher (which looks much cheaper in person than in the photo) started to develop spider web cracks all along the bottom. Normally I would let this slide, the functionality is present, but when you spend $20 dollars on a pitcher you would hope it would hold up more than a few weeks. Lastly I originally bought this pitcher on amazon, but have since seen it at marshalls for $7.99.

5.0 out of 5 stars Gorgeous pitcher March 26, 2010

By LuAnn M. Baker

I got this beautiful pitcher to encourage me to drink more water. It works! I fill this pitcher each evening with tap water and put it in the refrigerator, and by next morning I have tasty, subtly fruity, cool water ready to drink. I then leave it out on the counter during the day, to enjoy the eye candy, and to remind me to drink it. The fruit doesn't have to be changed every day. The instructions say up to a week is okay. I change it every for to five days because I leave it out during the day. So easy to change the fruit, too. Cleaning the pitcher is a breeze. There are no tiny spaces to trap food residue, it is just a pristine clear pitcher to show off your clear water and pretty fruit. I got one for my sister, too, and she loves it. Best of all, the water is great, and so "green". No plastic bottles to recycle, no filters to change and throw away. Just delicious water to enjoy.
