Low Iodine Green Tea Citrus Spritz

Bright, refreshing, and genuinely beautiful in the glass, this sparkling drink is the kind of thing you want to sip on a warm afternoon or serve at a casual gathering. Steeped green tea forms a deep golden-green base that gets layered with freshly squeezed orange and lime juice, then lifted with chilled sparkling water for a fizzy, citrus-forward finish. Every ingredient here is naturally low in iodine — no dairy, no seafood, no iodized salt, no processed additives — so you can drink freely without second-guessing the label on anything. Maple syrup does the sweetening in a way that feels a little more interesting than plain sugar, and the whole thing comes together with minimal effort. The trick to avoiding bitterness is in the steep: three minutes, no squeezing the bags, and you get clean, mellow tea flavor that plays beautifully with the citrus. Served over ice with a mint sprig and a thin citrus wheel, it looks far more impressive than the effort involved. It's the kind of drink that makes a restricted diet feel like anything but.
