Blueberry Peach Mint Water: Recipe and How to Make It

Blueberry peach mint water is a chilled fruit-and-herb infusion that takes 2 hours 10 minutes, including steeping, and makes about 4 cups (950 mL).

What is blueberry peach mint water?

Blueberry peach mint water is drinking water flavored with blueberries, sliced peach and fresh mint. The ingredients steep in the refrigerator, then you can strain them out or leave them in the pitcher when serving.

It’s a lightly flavored, unsweetened option among berry infused water recipes. The flavor is subtler than juice because the fruit is steeped rather than blended.

What ingredients and ratio do you need?

For approximately 4 cups (950 mL), use:

950 mL (4 cups) cold drinking water
75 g (about 1/2 cup) blueberries
75 g (about 1/2 cup) sliced peach, pit removed
5 g (about 1/4 cup loosely packed, or 8–12 leaves) fresh mint

The combined fruit comes to about 150 g, or roughly 1 cup, for a pitcher of water. A ripe peach gives the infusion a more noticeable aroma; a firm peach will hold its shape better in the pitcher.

Use a clean, covered pitcher large enough to hold the water and fruit. The finished amount is approximate because some water may remain on the fruit when you strain it.

How do you make blueberry peach mint water?

Active prep: about 10 minutes
Refrigerated steep: 2 hours
Total time: about 2 hours 10 minutes
Yield: about 4 cups (950 mL)

Rinse the blueberries, peach and mint under running water.
Slice the peach, removing and discarding the pit. Lightly press a few blueberries with a clean spoon if you want more berry flavor.
Add the blueberries, peach slices and mint to a clean pitcher. Gently bruise the mint leaves with the spoon to release their aroma.
Pour in the cold drinking water, cover the pitcher and refrigerate for 2 hours. For a stronger infusion, steep for up to 4 hours.
Serve chilled, straining out the fruit and mint if you prefer a clear drink.

Why do blueberries, peach and mint pair well?

Blueberries add a mild berry flavor and a little color, especially if a few are pressed. Peach brings a fragrant, rounded fruit note; explore blueberry infused water or peach infused water if you prefer either flavor on its own.

Mint provides a fresh herbal contrast without making the drink sweet. For a simpler herb infusion, see mint water.

The main practical benefit is hydration, particularly if the flavor encourages you to drink water. There’s no need to add sugar, though the infusion will not taste as sweet or concentrated as fruit juice.

Blueberries and peaches contain nutrients and fiber when eaten whole, but the amount that transfers into the water is uncertain. Your liver and kidneys do most of your body’s detoxification, while your lungs and gut also help eliminate waste; this drink supports hydration rather than cleansing those organs.

How should you store it?

Keep blueberry peach mint water covered in the refrigerator and drink it within 24 hours for the best flavor. Discard it after 2–3 days, or sooner if it becomes unexpectedly cloudy, slimy or sour-smelling.

Do not leave the pitcher at room temperature for more than a few hours. Straining the fruit and mint can make serving easier, but it does not reset the storage time.

How can you vary the recipe?

Make the berry flavor stronger

Press a few more blueberries before adding the water, or use a little more blueberry and a little less peach while keeping the combined fruit amount roughly the same. Pressed berries can make the water cloudier.

Make the mint flavor milder

Use fewer mint leaves or leave them whole rather than bruising them. Taste after the 2-hour steep and remove the mint when its flavor is where you like it.

Use frozen fruit

Frozen blueberries or peach slices can replace fresh fruit in the same approximate amounts. They may soften and release more color as they thaw, so strain the drink before serving if you prefer fewer fruit pieces.
