This is a standard at Assistant Test Kitchens Director James Schend's dinner parties. It's flavored water that's more refreshing than plain tap or bottled water, he says.
Ingredients:
1 medium cucumber
12 cups water
3 thin orange slices
3 thin lemon slices
3 fresh, thin ginger slices
3 fresh flat-leaf parsley or cilantro sprigs
6 fresh or frozen cranberries, thawed
garnish: fresh parsley or cilantro sprigs
Directions:
1. Cut 2 thin lengthwise slices from cucumber. Reserve remaining for another use.
2. Stir together cucumber slices, 12 cups water, and next 5 ingredients in a pitcher; cover and chill 1 hour. Pour over ice in glasses before serving. Garnish, if desired.
