Tree Nut Free Sea Salt Lemon Water
Bright, bracing, and endlessly refreshing, this simple lemon water gets a subtle upgrade from a pinch of fine sea salt that rounds out the tartness and makes every sip feel a little more intentional. It comes together in about a minute with just three real ingredients — cold water, fresh lemon juice, and sea salt — so there's nothing processed or mysterious hiding in your glass. For anyone navigating nut allergies, even beverages can feel like a minefield when flavored drinks and wellness shots are packed with almond extracts or walnut oils, but this one is completely clean and straightforward. The salt isn't just a gimmick either; it helps balance the acidity of the lemon and gives the drink a slightly electrolyte-forward quality that plain lemon water just doesn't have. Toss in a few ice cubes if you want it extra cold, and you've got a hydrating, feel-good drink that works first thing in the morning or alongside any meal.
