PRO TIPS

• Cute cups make your drink taste better. This is a fact.
• When pouring your soda, try pouring with the glass at an angle. I have found that this helps the fizz/carbonation to fizzle down more quickly.

Recommended Tools

• Cup: Glass or stainless steel to keep your precious cold!
• Pebble ice: you can buy bagged pebble ice from Sonic and Chick Fil A! The ice maker on our fridge broke awhile back, so we got a counter top pebble ice maker. BEST PURCHASE EVER. We use it multiple times a day!
• Juicer: I use my hand juicer ALL the time…and not just for making fun sodas! It’s amazing the difference freshly squeezed citrus can add to your cooking!
• Syrups & purees: I can usually find a decent selection at my local World Market and Smart and Final. I’ve also put together an Amazon list for easy shopping! I have found that Torani and Syruvia have the best flavors/selections. If you have others you like, let me know in the comments what you’ve found!

Make Your Own: Mixed Soda Ratios

The possibilities are seriously endless with making your own mixed soda! Here are some easy ratios to get you started:

• 1 can soda of choice
• 1 can soda: 1/2 pump puree or syrup
  • if using multiple flavors, consider doing 1/4 pump of each flavor as to not overpower the drink
• Juice from 1/4 of a citrus
• 1 Tbsp coconut cream, vanilla cream, or half & half/heavy cream
• Ice ice, baby!

Let me know in the comments which one is your favorite! And don’t worry…there will be plenty more soda recipes to come. I LOVE me some diet soda!
