Water or sparkling water will do the trick. The sparkling water gives it a bit of a kick. Add some lemon to keep the fruit fresh.

Or add a lot of lemons and sugar, and make lemonade! (Life did hand you the lemons, after all). Seriously though, this is your DIY beverage – there are no rules!

How To Cut Your Apple Into Stars

|

The only other real secret I need to give away is the stars… The fruit stars are simply pieces of apple cut into a star shape.

I chose to work with apples because they hold their shape way better than any other fruit. Take your apple, and slice it into 1/4″ thick slivers.

Then you can use a cookie cutter that is shaped like a star to get your shape or use your knife. Feel free to make heart shaped apple slices too, this creates a fun surprise to let you beverage revelers know you love them!  😉

Keep it in a nice big pitcher!

Pour it into cute mason jar cups!
