Nutmeg Free Cucumber Sparkling Water

Cool, crisp, and endlessly refreshing, this infused sparkling water is the kind of drink that makes a plain glass feel like something special. Thin slices of English cucumber steep right in the pitcher, lending a clean, subtly vegetal flavor that pairs beautifully with the effervescence of chilled sparkling water. A few fresh mint leaves, gently pressed to coax out their fragrance without turning bitter, take the whole thing up a notch. It's a naturally simple recipe with zero spices involved, so there's no need to scan labels or second-guess what's hiding in a flavoring blend. The method is almost meditative — slice, steep, pour — and the result looks far more elegant than the effort required. Serve it over ice at a summer gathering or just keep a pitcher in the fridge for whenever you need something a little more exciting than plain water.
