Not sure what drink to make today?
You can turn familiar drinks like Dutch Mill, Yakult, and C2 Apple into something more refreshing with a little sparkling water. Here are three easy recipes you can make at home with your Sodarizer in five minutes or less.
Sparkling Dutch Mill Cooler
Dutch Mill already has a smooth, tangy sweetness. Adding sparkling water makes it lighter and more refreshing, almost like a yogurt soda you'd order at a café.
Prep time: About 3 minutes
What you'll need:
- Dutch Mill yogurt drink (mango or strawberry)
- Sparkling water
- Ice
- Fresh fruit (optional)
Fill your glass with ice and pour in Dutch Mill until it's about halfway full. Top with sparkling water and stir gently. You can also add a few fruit slices for extra flavor.
Best paired with: Ham and cheese sandwiches or crackers. The drink's tangy sweetness complements the salty flavors of ham and cheese, while the fizz makes each bite feel less heavy.
Sparkling Calamansi Yakult
Yakult's sweetness balances the tartness of calamansi, giving you a citrusy drink with a pleasant tang.
Prep time: About 3 minutes
What you'll need:
- 2 bottles of Yakult
- Calamansi juice
- Fresh calamansi slices
- Sparkling water
-
Ice
Fill your glass with ice, then pour in the Yakult and a splash of calamansi juice. Add sparkling water, stir gently, and finish with a few calamansi slices.
Best paired with: Crispy and savory favorites like fried chicken, lumpia, or fish balls. The calamansi's tartness cuts through the richness of fried food, while the sweetness of Yakult balances the salty flavors.
Apple Berry Tea Soda
C2 Apple gives this drink its familiar apple tea flavor, while strawberry syrup adds a sweet berry note.
Prep time: About 5 minutes
What you'll need:
- C2 Apple
- Strawberry syrup
- Fresh strawberries
- Sparkling water
- Ice
Slice a few strawberries and place them in a glass with ice. Add a little strawberry syrup, pour in C2 Apple until the glass is about halfway full, and top with sparkling water. Stir gently before serving.
Best paired with: A burger or a plate of spaghetti. The fruity sweetness complements the savory flavors of a burger and works well with the tangy tomato sauce in spaghetti.
