Walnut Free Mint Citrus Infused Water
Bright, refreshing, and endlessly sippable, this infused water turns everyday hydration into something that actually feels special. Fresh lemon and orange rounds steep alongside gently bruised mint leaves, releasing a clean, citrusy fragrance that makes every glass taste like a spa day. The trick of pressing the mint just once or twice — rather than crushing it — keeps the flavor light and pleasant instead of sharp or grassy. After an hour in the fridge, the water takes on a faint golden tint and a subtle sweetness that no store-bought flavored water can match. There's nothing hidden here: just fruit, herbs, water, and ice, so you know exactly what you're drinking. It's the kind of pitcher you'll want to keep stocked all week long for guests, meals, or just a quiet afternoon pick-me-up.
