Method
Preparation
Gather all your ingredients and equipment. You will need a large pitcher or a serving jug to mix the sparkling water and flavorings.
If using fresh lemon juice, squeeze the juice from the lemons until you have about 2 tablespoons of juice. Set aside.
Wash the fresh mint leaves thoroughly and tear them gently to release their oils. Set aside.
Wash and slice cucumbers into thin rounds, about 1/4 inch thick. Set aside.
If using fresh berries, wash them gently and slice larger berries like strawberries in half or quarters if necessary. Set aside.
Mixing
Combine Ingredients
In a large pitcher, pour the carbonated water (4 cups) as the base.
Add the fresh lemon juice (2 tbs) to the carbonated water and stir gently to combine.
Incorporate the fresh mint leaves (10 leaves) into the mixture, gently pressing them against the sides of the pitcher to release more flavor.
Add cucumber slices (1 cup) and fresh berries (1 cup) to the pitcher. Stir to distribute evenly.
If you prefer a touch of sweetness, add honey or agave syrup (1 tbs) and stir until dissolved.
Serving
Pour the sparkling water into glasses filled with ice cubes if desired.
Garnish each glass with additional mint leaves or fruit slices for visual appeal.
Serve immediately and enjoy the refreshing sparkling water!
