Black Pepper Free Green Tea Citrus Infused Water
Bright, refreshing, and genuinely beautiful in a glass, this infused water brings together the gentle earthiness of green tea with the sunny zing of fresh lemon and orange. A handful of mint leaves rounds everything out, adding a cool, herbal lift that makes each sip feel almost spa-like. The magic happens in the fridge — a slow, cold steep lets the flavors meld gradually so nothing tastes sharp or overpowering, just clean and naturally fragrant. For anyone navigating a spice sensitivity, this kind of drink is a total win because every single ingredient is whole and visible, with zero hidden seasonings to worry about. It's the kind of pitcher you'll want to keep stocked all week, pulling it out for meals, afternoon breaks, or whenever you need something more interesting than plain water. The citrus rounds left floating inside look stunning on the table too, making it as much a centerpiece as a beverage.
