Hazelnut Free Lemon-Basil Orange Berry Infused Water
Bright citrus, juicy berries, and fresh basil come together in a pitcher of infused water that looks as gorgeous as it tastes. The combination of lemon, orange, and mixed berries gives every glass a naturally sweet-tart flavor that makes plain water feel like a serious upgrade. A gentle muddle releases just enough juice to tint the water a beautiful rosy hue without turning it cloudy or overpowering. The torn basil adds a subtle herbal note that rounds everything out in the most refreshing way. This is the kind of drink you set on a table and watch people reach for immediately. Since it's built entirely from whole fruit, fresh herbs, and water, there's zero concern about hidden nut-derived ingredients sneaking in — just clean, vibrant flavor from start to finish. Make a second batch from the same fruit for a lighter, equally lovely pour.

Place the lemon slices, orange slices, and mixed berries in a large pitcher. Using a muddler or the back of a wooden spoon, gently press the fruit 3–4 times — just enough to release some juice without fully crushing the pieces.
