Hot Eats and Cool Reads: Mixed Berry Spritzer Recipe

Mixed Berry Spritzer Recipe



There's nothing like a cold refreshing beverage on a humid Minnesota day. (see the condensation on the glass? lol) These Mixed Berry Spritzers are perfect. I just love the bubbly soda and chunks of fruit floating around. They are easy to prep and each person can add as much or little fruit as they want! Serve these at your next BBQ, get-together or birthday party and everyone will love them! You could also make an adult cocktail spritzer by adding your favorite clear liquor!

Mixed Berry Spritzer (print recipe)

What you need:
1- 2 liter bottle of lemon lime soda
1- 16 oz bag of frozen mixed berries
1/4 cup granulated sugar
ice
vodka, optional

Directions:
12-24 hours prior to serving, combine berries and sugar in a bowl. Cover and refrigerate until serving. 

Scoop a couple spoonfuls of the berry and syrup mixture into a glass. Add ice and soda. Stir and enjoy!
