Ingredients

Scale

For the Honey Lemon Pink Soda

  • 1 cup fresh lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1 cup unsweetened cranberry juice
  • 2 cups sparkling water or club soda (chilled)
  • Ice cubes (for serving)
  • Lemon slices (for garnish)
  • Fresh mint leaves (for garnish)

Instructions

  2. Add Cranberry Juice: Pour in the unsweetened cranberry juice and stir well to blend the flavors thoroughly, giving the soda its characteristic pink color and fruity tartness.
  3. Incorporate Sparkling Water: Gradually add the chilled sparkling water or club soda while stirring gently to mix all the ingredients without losing the fizz.

  5. Garnish and Enjoy: Garnish each glass with lemon slices and fresh mint leaves to enhance aroma and presentation before serving.

Notes

  • Use freshly squeezed lemon juice for the best flavor and brightness.
  • Adjust the amount of honey based on your preferred sweetness level.
  • For a stronger fizz, add the sparkling water just before serving.
  • This soda is best served immediately for optimal carbonation and freshness.
  • Can be made in advance without sparkling water; add it right before serving to maintain fizziness.
  • Use chilled ingredients to keep the soda refreshingly cold.
