Take your Sprite to the next level by adding–or accentuating–more flavors. Hop on the Utah Soda trend and give one of these soda recipes a go!

The “Utah Soda Culture” has taken the nation by storm. Made “famous” by soda shops like Fiiz and Swig, and widely broadcast on TikTok from a certain Hulu show, mixed sodas have become A THING. Don’t live near one of these iconic shops? No worries. Make your own at home with one of these amazing Sprite combos!

My first year of college was in an extremely small one-stop-light town. My roommate introduced me to a little soda shack and I quickly became a regular. While I am very much so a Diet Coke/DP kind of a girl, I was totally hooked on the pina colada Sprite (#2 below)!

Now I’ll be honest. I’m not the biggest Sprite drinker. And if I happen to drink Sprite, it’s gonna be Sprite Zero (Little Miss Insulin Resistant over here, thanks to PCOS). BUT legit all of these combos have me reaching for Sprite as my soda base!

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!
