Barley Free Cucumber-Mint Water
Cool, crisp, and endlessly refreshing, this infused water is the kind of drink that makes you feel like you're at a spa without leaving your kitchen. Sliced cucumber and fresh mint steep together in cold water until every sip is lightly fragrant and subtly sweet. It's a beautifully simple recipe — just four ingredients, a pitcher, and a little patience in the fridge. For anyone navigating grain sensitivities, plain water and fresh produce are naturally worry-free, so there's zero label-reading required here. The longer you let it steep, the more pronounced that cool, herbal flavor becomes, making it easy to customize to your taste. Serve it straight from the pitcher and let the cucumber and mint keep working their magic as the day goes on.
