Bottled Water Recipe

Chill the bottled spring water in a refrigerator for at least 1–2 hours before serving if it is not already cold. Alternatively, fill a clean glass with 4 ice cubes.

If using a glass: place the ice cubes into the glass. Pour the water from the bottle into the glass, leaving a little headspace at the top to avoid spilling.

If serving directly from the bottle: remove the bottle cap just before serving to preserve carbonation or freshness. Wipe the bottle mouth with a clean napkin if desired.

For optional garnish: slide a lemon slice onto the rim of the glass or float it on top of the water. Add a fresh mint leaf for aroma. Do not add garnish if serving to someone who may have citrus or herb allergies.

Serve immediately. Reseal the bottle with its cap if not finished; store refrigerated and consume within 24–48 hours for best taste.
