Method
Drink
- 1
Chill glass (optional)
If you prefer extra-cold water, place the serving glass in the freezer for 5–10 minutes or fill it with ice and cold water for 1–2 minutes, then discard that ice water before assembling.
- 2
Add 4 ice cubes to the prepared glass.
- 3
Pour 355 ml cold filtered water into the glass over the ice. Pour slowly to avoid splashing and to keep the ice intact.
- 4
Gently stir the water once with a spoon for about 5 seconds to combine temperature and slightly chill the water from the ice.
Optional add-ins

- 6
Mint
If using fresh mint, clap the mint sprig once between your hands to release aroma, then add it to the glass, either standing upright or gently submerged so it infuses the surface of the water.
- 7
Taste and adjust: if you want a stronger aroma, add another mint sprig or another lemon slice. Serve immediately.
