Soy 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. Fresh lime juice and a touch of zest give it a punchy citrus flavor that bottled sodas and store-bought sparkling drinks simply can't match ā and you know exactly what's in it. That matters more than people realize, since plenty of flavored beverages and drink mixes sneak in additives or natural flavors with murky sourcing. Here, it's just real lime, bubbles, and ice. The trick of pouring the sparkling water slowly and stirring gently keeps every sip perfectly fizzy rather than flat. Serve it as a mocktail, a palate cleanser, or just a midday pick-me-up ā it looks gorgeous with a lime wedge on the rim and tastes even better than it looks.
