Notes

English cucumbers provide the mildest flavor and don't require peeling.
Taste the fruit mixture before adding additional sweetener.
Frozen blueberries work well when fresh berries aren't available.
Add the sparkling water just before serving to preserve the carbonation.
Chill the serving glasses for an extra refreshing presentation.
