Cinnamon Free Cucumber-Mint Water
Cool, clean, and endlessly refreshing, this infused water is exactly what a hot day calls for. Thin cucumber slices and fresh mint leaves steep right in the pitcher, releasing a subtle, spa-like flavor that feels fancy without any effort at all. For anyone avoiding cinnamon, flavored waters and store-bought beverages can be surprisingly tricky — many "refreshing" blends sneak in cinnamon or spiced extracts that have no business being there. This recipe keeps things beautifully simple: just cucumber, mint, cold water, and optional ice, so you know exactly what you're sipping. The longer it steeps, the more fragrant and flavorful it becomes, making it easy to customize to your taste. It's the kind of thing you'll want to keep in the fridge all week.
