3. Ginger-Lime Zing

Thinly slice a 1-inch piece of fresh ginger and simmer it in ½ cup water with 1 teaspoon of sugar for 5 minutes. Cool and strain. Add fresh lime juice to taste, then top with sparkling water—zesty, bold, and bright.

4. Herbal Honeydew Cooler

Blend a cup of ripe honeydew melon until smooth, then strain. Mix in a teaspoon of honey and a sprig of fresh basil. Pour chilled sparkling water over the mix and stir gently—light, floral, and utterly refreshing.

Make a strong green or herbal tea and let it chill. Sweeten lightly with honey or agave. Fill a glass halfway with tea, top with carbonated water, stir, and garnish with lemon slices. A perfect afternoon refresher.
