Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup ice cubes
  • 2 fresh limes unpeeled and sliced
  • 2 fresh lemons unpeeled and sliced
  • 1 small cucumber unpeeled and sliced
  • 1 cup fresh mint leaves cleaned and lightly packed
  • 1 liter about 4¼ cups sparkling or still water, plain and unsweetened

Method
 

  1. Add the ice cubes, sliced limes, sliced lemons, sliced cucumber, and mint leaves to a 2-quart pitcher or beverage dispenser.
  2. Pour in the sparkling or still water.
  3. Serve right away, or cover and refrigerate until ready to serve. Makes about 6 servings (roughly 1⅓ cups each).

Notes

  • For a stronger flavor, let the pitcher sit in the fridge for at least 30 minutes to an hour before serving.
  • Lightly bruising the mint leaves before adding them helps release more flavor.
  • Best enjoyed within 2 to 3 days for the freshest taste.
