BHA & BHT Free Lime Sparkling Water
Crisp, bright, and endlessly refreshing, this sparkling lime drink is the kind of thing you'll want to make on repeat all summer long. It comes together in minutes using just three real ingredients ā fresh lime juice, lime zest, and chilled sparkling water ā so you know exactly what's going into your glass. That matters more than it might seem, because many flavored sparkling waters and bottled beverages rely on synthetic preservatives that people avoiding BHA and BHT have to watch out for on labels. Here, there's nothing to decode. The zest adds a fragrant, slightly floral depth that plain lime juice alone can't quite deliver, and pouring the sparkling water slowly keeps every sip beautifully fizzy. Serve it over ice with a wedge of lime for a drink that looks as good as it tastes.
