Method

Water

1

Serve plain chilled

Pour 1 cup of cold filtered water into a clean glass. Serve immediately.

2

Serve with ice

If using ice, add 2 ice cubes to the glass, then pour 1 cup of cold filtered water over the ice. Allow to sit 10–20 seconds to slightly chill before serving.

Optional Additions

3

Lemon or mint garnish

If using a lemon slice, run the slice around the rim of the glass and drop it into the water. If using mint, gently slap the mint leaves between your palms to release aroma and add them to the glass. Add ice first if using, then pour water so garnish sits attractively.

4

Sparkling alternative

To serve sparkling water instead of still, substitute 1 cup sparkling water for the still water. Pour into a chilled glass and add ice or garnish as desired.

5

Adjust temperature

For colder water, use more ice or pre-chill the glass in the freezer for 5–10 minutes. For room-temperature preference, skip ice and use water stored at room temperature.
