Bright citrus slices and a handful of fresh mint turn a plain pitcher of water into something genuinely refreshing and a little fancy. The lemon and orange rounds bring a gentle tang while the mint adds a cool, aromatic lift — together they make hydration feel like an actual treat. A quick press of the mint leaves before pouring releases just enough of their natural oils to perfume the whole pitcher without muddying the flavor. After an hour in the fridge, the water takes on a soft golden tint and a fragrance that makes it hard not to pour a glass immediately. Every ingredient here is naturally free from nuts of any kind, so there's no label-reading required — just whole fruit, fresh herbs, and water. It's the kind of thing you can set up before dinner and have ready to serve to a crowd, or keep on the counter for slow weekend sipping.
