Celery Free Cucumber Sparkling Water
Cool, crisp, and endlessly refreshing, this infused sparkling water is the kind of drink that makes a regular afternoon feel a little more special. Thin slices of English cucumber steep in chilled sparkling water until every sip carries that clean, subtly sweet flavor that's hard to beat on a warm day. A handful of fresh mint leaves adds an optional layer of brightness — just a gentle press with a spoon is all it takes to coax out their aroma without overpowering the cucumber. The whole thing comes together in a pitcher with almost zero effort, then chills in the fridge until you're ready to pour. It's naturally free from anything processed or hidden, with just a few whole ingredients doing all the work. Serve it over ice at a backyard gathering or keep a pitcher in the fridge all week for a hydrating, elegant alternative to plain water.
