Life Wtr

Life Wtr is listed under mixers and soda water, so it belongs in the non-alcoholic part of the bar, next to tonics, sodas and juices. The product details don't give a flavor profile, carbonation level or ingredient list. The notes below describe how clean, neutral mixers of this type usually behave, not a measured profile of this bottle. A mixer in this category is best served well chilled, ideally from the refrigerator and poured over plenty of fresh ice. Cold liquid and large, dense cubes keep dilution slow and any fizz lively. If the bottle is sparkling, pour gently down the side of the glass or along a bar spoon, and add it last so the bubbles stay in the drink. If it is still, it can be stirred in freely without losing anything. Its natural use is the long drink. Neutral mixers like this suit a highball of one part spirit to roughly three parts mixer, such as vodka, gin, blanco tequila or a light rum. They also work in a spritz-style build with a bitter aperitif or a dry white wine, and in a Paloma or a Mojito, where the citrus and mint should lead. Choose a flavored or juice-based bottle for sweeter builds, and keep a plain one for drinks where the base spirit should stay in front. Serve it in a tall highball or Collins glass, chilled first if you can. Fill it with ice, then add the spirit and top with the mixer. A wedge of lime, lemon or grapefruit, or a sprig of mint, is usually all the garnish it needs. On its own, a chilled glass over ice with a citrus slice is a simple, food-friendly choice with fried dishes, grilled seafood and salty snacks.
