My hubby and I enjoy a bottle of sparkling (non-alcoholic) juice on occasion, but a friend of mine gave me a tip on making my own at home.
The extra nice part is that it's super easy, and you can make it in any flavor that you like.
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Pick out your favorite juice in concentrate form, and grab a bottle or two of seltzer water.
- Chill your seltzer water, and then instead of mixing the juice concentrate with regular water, use the seltzer water in the same amount as the concentrate suggests.
- Gently stir together the seltzer and concentrate, and you are ready to serve.
Fancy it up with a slice of lemon or lime, and serve with lots of ice!
Super easy, refreshing, fizzy and you can tailor it to whatever flavor you might be in the mood for. If you're feeling crazy, try mixing a couple of different juices!
Hope you enjoy!

Margo this sounds so good and could truly be substituted for sodas. Thank you for sharing. Blessing, Jo-Ann

I'm going to try these, matter of fact I have to get groceries this morning so I'll pick up the seltzer water 🙂
Ann Kroeker says
Yum! Sounds refreshing and a great alternative to sodas...rather celebrative. I would much prefer this to alcohol, or even soda. I think I'll swing by the store tonight for seltzer. Thanks for the tip!

Thanks for this idea! I'm hosting a friend's shower in a few weeks and was looking for a sweet summery drink. She loves Italian soda, so this is close enough, right? 🙂
Blessings!

What a great idea! We love the sparkling apple cider, too, but I don't buy it very often because it's expensive. I can't wait to try this! I found a fabulous recipe on Pinterest that I want to try using this. Thanks for sharing!
CJ @ Morsels of Life says
What a great idea - so simple yet so brilliant! Plus, you get to customize it any way you want. 🙂

Thanks for this! Can't wait to try it. Also your article had a link to another article on how to make your own ginger ale using a pinch of champagne yeast. I agree with another commenter here that it feels better making my own soda for my family than to let companies do it. I can make all different kinds now, thanks to you!
