    I do this all the time. My favorite is cucumber and mint. So refreshing. I also have an immersion pitcher with a slotted container for holding the fruit. I just keep adding water to it and change out the fruit and herbs every 4-5 days.

    Hi Shazi!

    Yes unsweetened carbonated water like club soda is OK.

    If fruit is a no-no on a keto diet, is putting fruit in water letting any of the sugar/carbs into the water?

    If you are only using 1 or 2 pieces to flavor the water, the sugar release would be so minimal that it shouldn't matter. Berries are OK, so if you are concerned, I would use berries.

    I'm adding an orange to my water do I need to count that as any carbs? I let it steep a couple of days and just add water as needed
