Pecan Free Garden Mint Citrus Cooler

Bright, herby, and endlessly refreshing, this sparkling drink is the kind of thing you'll want to keep on rotation all summer long. Fresh orange juice and lime juice bring a punchy citrus backbone, while a homemade maple mint syrup adds a subtle sweetness that feels way more interesting than plain sugar. Muddling the mint leaves directly into the warm syrup coaxes out every bit of that garden-fresh fragrance before it steeps and gets strained into a clean, jewel-toned base. When the chilled sparkling water hits the pitcher, the whole thing comes alive with bubbles and a gorgeous citrusy aroma. It's naturally free from tree nuts of any kind — no swaps needed, no label-reading required — because every single ingredient here is just clean, simple produce and pantry staples. Dress it up with a lime wedge and a sprig of fresh mint and it looks like something from a fancy brunch menu, but it genuinely comes together in under 30 minutes of mostly hands-off time.
