Walnut 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 sweet flavor to every sip. A few fresh mint leaves, gently pressed to coax out their aroma without turning bitter, take the whole thing to another level. It's the sort of effortlessly elegant drink you'd expect at a spa or a summer garden party, and it comes together with almost zero effort. Since it's built entirely from fresh produce and sparkling water, there's nothing hidden to worry about — just pure, simple ingredients doing exactly what they're supposed to do. Serve it over ice at your next gathering and watch the pitcher disappear faster than you'd expect.
