What are some refreshing beverage ideas using an infuser for a bridal shower?

[kreaser]

I am doing a bridal shower this saturday and they want to have a bev in the quick stir pitcher using the herb infuser? any ideas? I was thinking just iced tea with fresh mint leaves? would that work? Havent' used the infuser yet

First of all, try some things yourself BEFORE the shower. I think I hear that cucumber slices, mint leaves, and a bit of lemon juice makes a great beverage.

Lemon and thyme is a good combo.. Could also do fresh basil with lemonade.

Cucumber slices and rosemary is also a good combo. My favorite is just cucumbers and water though. The longer it sits, the better but at least 24 hours.

Do you just slice the cucumbers and let them set inthe water? T

 

[LoriLions]

Yes, I score the skin of the cucumbers, and thinly slice them. If I'm using the freshrosemary sprig, I use one bunch of rosemary for ten slices. You may need to use more rosemary using the herb infuser though.

Don't slice the cucumbers too thin--not like a wafer though because the longer they sit in the water, the more they break down.
