Hydration shouldn't be boring, and it definitely shouldn't come from artificial powders or plastic single-use bottles. Traditional fruit infusions require large, cumbersome glass pitchers, messy fruit strainers, or loose ingredients floating around that block your straw with every sip. By utilizing the BRU Tumbler’s true brew-to-go setup, your travel mug transforms into an all-day infusion station. With double-wall vacuum insulation to keep ice frozen for hours and a ceramic-coated interior that prevents metallic aftertastes or fruit acid degradation, you can create crisp, spa-quality fruit and herb infusions right on your counter or on the move.
The Recipe& Specs
Infusion Base: Fresh citrus, berries, cucumber slices, or crushed herbs (mint, basil, rosemary)
Prep Method: Lightly muddle herbs and gently slice fruit to release natural juices and essential oils
Ice & Water Ratio: Fill mug 1/2 full with ice, then top off with cold filtered water (~16 oz. total liquid equivalent)
Infusion Time: 30 minutes to 2 hours for light infusion; continuous refill throughout the day
Step-by-Step Guide
Prep the Base: Fill your BRU Tumbler halfway with ice cubes, then attach the cone mesh filter on the bottom of the lid and flip the tab to the Fill/Brew position.
Add Ingredients: Place your sliced fruits (like lemon, lime, or strawberries) and muddled herbs (like fresh mint or basil) into the cone mesh filter.
Pour Water: Slowly pour cold, crisp filtered water directly over the ingredients to the fill line.
Infusion: Close the lid. The double-wall insulation locks in the ice-cold temperature, allowing natural fruit flavors and antioxidants to rapidly diffuse into the water without needing to sit in a refrigerator.
Enjoy: Drink directly through the sip lid while keeping the filter attached—enjoying continuous flavor while the micro-mesh keeps seeds, pulp, and leaves neatly contained.
Refill All Day: Once you finish your first batch, simply top off with fresh cold water over the same fruit basket for 2–3 additional flavorful refills throughout the day.
