Wheat Free Fruit-Infused Water
Staying hydrated has never looked this good. Bright citrus rounds, cool cucumber slices, and a handful of bruised fresh mint turn a plain pitcher of water into something genuinely refreshing and beautiful on the table. The trick of clapping the mint between your palms before adding it is a small step that makes a real difference, coaxing out those aromatic oils so every sip tastes clean and lively. After just an hour in the fridge, the water picks up a faint blush of color and a gentle fragrance that makes you actually want to reach for your glass. There's nothing to decode on a label here — just whole fruit, a vegetable, an herb, and water, so it's naturally free of grain-based ingredients without any substitutions required. It's an effortless way to dress up your hydration for a dinner party, a weekend brunch, or simply a warm afternoon at home.
