The East Bay area here has very good water quality.
And a lemon slice in the glass still makes it even more pleasant to drink. And it keeps the ice cubes from hitting my teeth.
Nice taste, eliminates a minor annoyance. Well done, Lemon Slice.
Given the amount of outbreaks of disease due to lemon slices in water, I'd say people have a lot more to worry about, especially if they knew how bad bacteria levels can really be, compared to lemon slice contamination.
Cucumber slices in water? I've never heard of that. Nice eye appeal, but I can't imagine how the water would taste.
Oh, and pet peeve- cucumber slices with the peel left on. Not that I'm worried about catching Jumping Pellagra from the peels, I just don't like the look, taste, or texture of that garnish.
