Low Sugar Green Tea Citrus Infused Water
Staying hydrated doesn't have to mean plain water or reaching for a bottle loaded with sweeteners and artificial flavors. This infused water gets its brightness from real lemon and orange slices, a subtle earthiness from green tea, and a cool, refreshing lift from fresh mint — zero added sugar, just natural flavor doing all the work. The slow cold steep in the fridge is the real secret here: a few hours is all it takes for the water to turn lightly golden and beautifully fragrant. It's the kind of drink that looks stunning in a pitcher on the table but takes almost no effort to pull together. Whether you're cutting back on sweetened beverages or just want something more interesting than plain water, this hits the spot without any compromise. Pour it over ice and it's genuinely satisfying — crisp, citrusy, and just a little floral from the mint.
