How long can you leave fruit in a infuser?

Fruit can typically be left in an infuser for about 2 to 8 hours, depending on the type of fruit and the desired flavor intensity. Softer fruits like berries may infuse more quickly, while firmer fruits like Apples or citrus may need longer. However, leaving fruit in for too long can lead to over-extraction and a mushy texture. For best results, taste periodically to find the right balance.
