DetoxWater Editorial Team•Published November 5, 2026

It’s a lightly flavored, unsweetened drink that’s easy to make in a pitcher. For more combinations using berries, browse these berry infused water recipes.

What is blueberry peach water?

Blueberry peach water is made by letting cut fruit steep in cold water rather than blending it into a juice or smoothie. The water takes on a subtle fruit flavor, while most of the fruit remains in the pitcher.

The result is less sweet and less concentrated than juice. It can make plain water more appealing, but it is not a detox treatment: the liver and kidneys do most of the body’s detoxification.

What ingredients and ratio do you need?

Use about 1 cup of prepared fruit for 1 liter of water. This recipe divides the fruit evenly between blueberries and peach, so neither flavor needs to dominate.

Ingredients

  • Water: 1,000 ml (about 4¼ cups)
  • Blueberries: 75 g (about ½ cup)
  • Peach: 75 g (about ½ cup sliced or diced), pit removed

Choose a ripe peach for a more noticeable aroma. The measurements are approximate; the size of the slices and berries will affect how much fits in a cup. Use a clean pitcher or jar large enough to hold the water and fruit.

Prep time: 10 minutes
Refrigerator steeping time: 2 hours
Total time: 2 hours 10 minutes
Yield: About 1 liter (4¼ cups), or 4 servings

How do you make blueberry peach water?

  1. Wash the blueberries and peach under running water.
  2. Remove the peach pit and cut the flesh into thin slices or small pieces.
  3. Add the blueberries and peach to a clean pitcher or jar.
  4. Pour in the water, cover the container and refrigerate for 2 hours. For a stronger flavor, steep for up to 4 hours.
  5. Strain out the fruit if you prefer, then serve the water chilled. You can leave the fruit in the pitcher for serving if you like its appearance.

Why do blueberries and peach pair well?

Blueberries lend a mild berry taste, while ripe peach adds a softer, fragrant fruit note. Cutting the peach exposes more of its flesh to the water, helping its flavor infuse without turning the drink into a purée.

The main benefit of blueberry peach water is hydration. The fruit contains nutrients, but the amount that transfers into the water is uncertain; drinking the infusion is not nutritionally equivalent to eating the fruit. If you enjoy one flavor more than the other, explore blueberry infused water or peach infused water.

Steeped water without squeezed or blended fruit is very low in calories, usually under 10 kcal per glass. Eating the fruit or squeezing it into the water adds calories from the fruit.

How should you store blueberry peach water?

Keep blueberry peach water covered and 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 the pitcher at room temperature for more than a few hours. If you strain out the fruit, you can eat it or compost it; keep it refrigerated if you plan to eat it later, and discard it if it shows signs of spoilage.

What variations can you make?

Make the berry flavor stronger

Use more blueberries and less peach while keeping the total fruit quantity near 1 cup per liter of water. The flavor will still be gentle, but the balance will shift toward berries.

Bring out the peach

Use more peach and fewer blueberries, or cut the peach into smaller pieces before steeping. A fragrant, ripe peach will generally contribute more aroma than an underripe one.

Add fresh mint

Add 8–12 washed mint leaves, about 5 g, to the pitcher before refrigerating. The mint adds a fresh note without requiring a sweetener; strain it out with the fruit if you prefer a clear drink.
