Ginger Free Sparkling Pineapple Mint Water

Tropical, bubbly, and impossibly refreshing, this sparkling infused water is the kind of drink that makes a regular afternoon feel like a mini vacation. Fresh pineapple chunks and bruised mint leaves steep in cold water until the whole pitcher smells like a fruit garden, then chilled sparkling water gets folded in at the last minute to keep every sip lively and effervescent. The technique of lightly pressing the mint between your palms before adding it is a small step that makes a big difference, releasing the natural oils without turning the flavor bitter or overpowering. Many flavored drinks and sodas sneak in ginger as a "natural flavor," so making your own infused water at home is the cleanest way to enjoy something special without second-guessing the label. This recipe keeps things beautifully simple — just real fruit, fresh herbs, water, and ice. It's elegant enough to serve at a brunch or dinner party with a pineapple slice and mint sprig garnish, but honestly just as satisfying poured into a tall glass on a random Tuesday.
