Wheat Free Mint Citrus Infused Water
Bright, refreshing, and endlessly drinkable, this infused water turns everyday hydration into something that actually feels special. Fresh lemon and orange rounds steep alongside mint leaves, slowly releasing their natural oils and citrus fragrance into cold water until every glass tastes clean and lively. The trick of gently pressing the mint — just enough to coax out the oils without tearing the leaves — makes a noticeable difference in the final flavor. Everything here is naturally free of grains and gluten-containing ingredients, so there is absolutely nothing to second-guess on the label or in the prep. It is the kind of drink that looks gorgeous on a table, whether you are hosting brunch or just trying to make a Tuesday feel a little more put-together. Just remember to discard the fruit and mint after eight hours to keep the flavor bright and avoid any bitterness from the citrus pith.
