Staying hydrated gets a serious upgrade with this crisp, refreshing infused drink that feels like something you'd order at a spa. Cool cucumber slices steep right in the sparkling water, lending a clean, subtle flavor that's light without being boring. A few fresh mint leaves pressed just enough to release their fragrance take the whole thing to another level. Managing a nickel sensitivity often means scrutinizing even the simplest packaged beverages for hidden additives or high-nickel ingredients, and this recipe sidesteps all of that with just a handful of whole, low-nickel ingredients. There's no cooking involved, no complicated prep — just slice, steep, and pour. It's the kind of drink that looks effortlessly elegant in a glass pitcher on a warm afternoon, whether you're serving guests or just treating yourself.
