Peanut Free Sparkling Pineapple Mint Water
Tropical, refreshing, and endlessly pretty in a glass, this sparkling infused water is the kind of drink that makes any afternoon feel like a little celebration. Fresh pineapple chunks and bruised mint leaves steep in cold water until the whole pitcher smells like a vacation, then chilled sparkling water gets folded in at the last minute to keep every sip bubbly and bright. The technique of lightly bruising the mint between your palms is a small step that makes a big difference, releasing the essential oils without turning the flavor bitter or grassy. Everything here is whole, simple, and completely transparent — fresh fruit, fresh herbs, water, and ice, so there's zero guesswork about what's actually in your glass. It's a wonderful option for parties, kids' tables, or anyone who wants something festive without reaching for a sugary bottled drink. Garnish with a thin pineapple slice and a sprig of mint and it looks almost too good to drink — almost.
