Apple Pear Cinnamon Water: Easy Infused Water Recipe
Apple pear cinnamon water is a fruit-and-spice infusion that takes 2 hours 10 minutes to prepare, including chilling, and yields about 950 ml (4 cups).
What is apple pear cinnamon water?
Apple pear cinnamon water is drinking water infused with fresh apple, fresh pear and a cinnamon stick. The fruit gives it a gentle sweetness, while the cinnamon adds a warm aroma without making it a hot drink.
It is one way to combine the two fruits; explore more apple and pear infused water recipes for other pairings. This version is steeped rather than blended, so its flavor is lighter than juice.
What ingredients and ratio do you need?
For approximately 4 servings, use:
- 950 ml (4 cups) cold drinking water
- 75 g apple, about 2/3 cup sliced
- 75 g pear, about 1/2 cup sliced
- 1 cinnamon stick, about 2–3 g; a cup measure is not applicable to a whole stick
The fruit measurements are approximate because slice sizes vary. Measure the apple and pear after removing their cores; leave the peel on for convenience and color.
This ratio uses roughly 150 g of fruit per liter of water, plus one cinnamon stick. A firm, ripe pear and a crisp apple are easy to slice and hold their shape in the pitcher. Choose fruit you enjoy eating, since both contribute to the flavor.
How do you make apple pear cinnamon water?
- Wash the apple and pear under running water, then rinse a pitcher and its lid.
- Core the fruit and cut it into thin slices. Measure approximately 75 g of each.
- Add the apple, pear and cinnamon stick to the pitcher, then pour in 950 ml (4 cups) of cold drinking water.
- Cover the pitcher and refrigerate for 2 hours. For a stronger infusion, leave it in the refrigerator for up to 4 hours.
- Serve the water cold, straining out the fruit and cinnamon if you prefer. Return any remaining water to the refrigerator.

Pour a small serving after the first 2 hours to check the flavor. If it is milder than you like, return the covered pitcher to the refrigerator for the rest of the steeping time. The result will remain subtler than a blended fruit drink.

Why do apple, pear and cinnamon pair well?
Apple brings a crisp, mildly tart note; pear adds a softer, fragrant sweetness. Cinnamon ties them together with a familiar warm-spice aroma, even though the finished water is served cold. The separate flavors are also the basis of apple infused water, pear infused water and cinnamon water.
The main benefit of the drink is hydration. The liver and kidneys do most of the body’s detoxification; this infusion does not provide a special cleanse. If you strain out the fruit, do not count the whole fruit’s fiber or nutrients as part of the water.
How should you store apple pear cinnamon water?
Keep the covered pitcher refrigerated and drink it within 24 hours for the best flavor. Discard it after 2–3 days, or sooner if it becomes cloudy or slimy or develops a sour smell. Do not leave it at room temperature for more than a few hours.
Straining the fruit and cinnamon can make the drink easier to pour, but it does not restart the storage clock. Keep track of when you first prepared the pitcher, even if you transfer the water to another container.
How can you vary the flavor?
Change the apple
Use a tart apple for a brighter taste or a sweeter apple for a softer one. Keep the amount of sliced apple the same so the fruit-to-water ratio stays balanced.
Adjust the pear
Choose a fragrant, ripe pear for a more noticeable pear flavor. A very soft pear can break apart as you slice it, so strain the finished drink if you want a clearer pour.
Adjust the steep
Start tasting after 2 hours and refrigerate for up to 4 hours if you want more flavor. This lets you adjust the strength without adding more fruit or spice.

Can I peel the apple and pear?
Yes. Peeling is optional, though leaving the peel on adds color to the pitcher.
Do I need to add sugar?
No. The fruit gives the water a mild natural flavor without added sugar.
Is it normal for the cinnamon stick to float?
Yes. A cinnamon stick can float while it infuses; it does not need to sink to add flavor.
