Branch water

From Wikipedia - Reading time: 2 min

Branch water, also called branch, is water from a natural stream (a term primarily used in the southern states); it may also refer to any plain water, such as tap water (rather than soda water), when added to a mixed drink. For example, "bourbon and branch" refers to bourbon whiskey with water.[1][2] This water may have been naturally limestone-filtered by passing through underground limestone, which removes iron. As such, it is a traditional ingredient in the distillation of Kentucky bourbon.[3]
