Club Soda: For a fizzy version, you could substitute half of the juice for club soda or sparkling water. Grenadine: A little grenadine gives it an eye-catching color and really dresses up the taste. I recommend not skipping it. Chill: Refrigerate for at least one hour before serving to let all the fruit flavors mix together, overnight is better. Fruit: You can use any combination of fruit that you prefer or even better you can use seasonal fruit, so you can save some money too… Isn’t great?
Storing Instructions
Store in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days, after that the fruit will start to get mushy.
