Lupin Free Pineapple Mint Spritz
This spritz is the kind of drink that makes you feel like you're sitting somewhere tropical, even if you're just in your kitchen on a Tuesday. Fresh pineapple gets blended with mint, lime juice, and a touch of maple syrup before being strained into a pitcher and topped with chilled sparkling water — the result is bright, fizzy, and genuinely refreshing. Every single ingredient here is a whole, recognizable food, so there's no need to scan labels or second-guess anything. Lupin, a legume sometimes used as a flour or filler in packaged drinks and mixes, is simply not a concern when you're building a beverage from scratch like this. The straining step is worth the extra minute — it gives you a silky-smooth base that lets the sparkling water really shine. Garnish with a lime slice and a sprig of mint and it looks almost too pretty to drink. Almost.
