Nickel Allergy Friendly Orange Vanilla Infused Water
Staying hydrated gets a serious upgrade with this bright, subtly sweet infused water that feels like something you'd order at a spa. Fresh navel orange rounds bring a gentle citrus lift, while a split vanilla bean adds a warm, floral depth that makes every sip feel a little luxurious. Managing a nickel sensitivity often means scrutinizing ingredient lists and avoiding a surprising number of foods — but this recipe keeps things beautifully simple with just three clean ingredients. No nuts, no grains, no legumes, and no hidden additives that tend to sneak into packaged flavored waters and wellness drinks. The slow cold infusion in the fridge does all the work, letting the orange and vanilla meld together naturally over an hour or up to eight hours. Serve it straight from the pitcher over ice and let the slices and bean keep steeping for refills throughout the day.
