Fruit Spritzers

The New Year is right around the corner, and it’s one of my favorite times to celebrate. We usually opt for a low-key night at home, wearing fun hats and ringing in the next year as a family. One of my favorite things to serve are Fruit Spritzers made with 7UP® and Canada Dry Ginger Ale® — it’s so easy to dress up your favorite wine or champagne with them!

I picked up a 2-liter bottle of each while shopping at Walmart — I like to have them on-hand during the holidays so that we can make drinks at any time!

You can really transform any wine or champagne into a spritzer using 7UP® and Canada Dry Ginger Ale®, but I thought I’d share a couple of my favorite drink recipes to give you some inspiration. Not a cocktail drinker? You can also use white grape juice to make “mocktails” that are perfect for little ones!

TIP: Freeze berries (like raspberries or blueberries) to keep drinks cold instead of ice cubes! They’re much more festive!
