The holiday season is just around the corner and I must confess I love this time of year. It’s as if an open invitation is released and soon friends and family will be dropping by here and there to say hello. After Thanksgiving, I am pretty much in the kitchen baking & cooking and what better way to let the time pass between batches of cookies than to sit and chat over a cup of coffee or if later in the day a cocktail.
But, not everyone is a coffee drinker, (guffaw! I Know!) and sometimes, friends are on kiddo carpool duty, so I like to have other options available to sip.
This is the perfect concoction! Not too sweet, not too bitter. It’s refreshing and well, just right! The ingredients are simple and you can have on hand all year round!
Make one for your friends and while you’re at it, one for you too!
Cheers!

POM Fizz
8 0z. POM Wonderful juice {affiliate link}
8 0z. Sparkling Water (I use San Pellegrino) {affiliate link}
1/2 fresh lime, squeezed for juice
1/2 Tbsp sugar (optional)
Combine POM juice and sparkling water in tall glass over ice. Squeeze in lime juice. Stir. Add a few lime slices to glass.
** You could make a full pitcher of this also…equal parts of juice/water and adjust for lime. If drink is too tart, you can add 1/2 Tbsp. sugar per 160z serving & stir.
I love mixing apple juice and sparkling water together. It a drink called “Apfelschorle” in Germany and has always been a favorite. I do enjoy the POM Wonderful juice and have added that as well before. This sounds like something I would enjoy. 🙂
I love to make this when I’m cooking!! A nice refreshing twist!
