Use the freshest mint you can.
Squeeze some of the mint leaves so that you'll get the most flavor .
Allow the mint to infuse for at least 30 minutes.
Leave them in the pitcher for up to 4 hours but remove them after that.
Save the infused water in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
Try mixing your mint water with other flavors like blueberry or raspberry.
Do you prefer sparkling water? No problem, use that instead of regular water.

PRO TIP: For a fancy twist, dip the rim of the glass in colored sugar. Its beautiful and adds a bit of sweetness to your day.
