Main Ingredients
- ½ cup gummy bears (plus extra for garnish!)
- 1 cup lemon-lime soda (such as Sprite or 7UP)
- 1 cup fruit juice (choose your favorite: mango, cranberry, pineapple, or blue raspberry punch)
- ½ cup club soda or sparkling water
- Ice cubes (optional, to keep it extra chilled)
Optional Garnishes
- Gummy bears on skewers
- Fresh fruit slices (orange, lime, or lemon)
- Sugar for rimming glasses
- Prepare the Glasses: Add about ¼ cup of gummy bears to the bottom of each tall glass. If desired, create a sugar rim by dipping the glass rim in lemon juice, then into sugar to add sparkle and sweetness.
- Mix the Base: In a large cup or pitcher, combine the fruit juice and lemon-lime soda. Stir in the club soda or sparkling water for extra bubbles and a lighter fizz.
- Pour and Watch the Magic Happen: Pour the mixed beverage over the gummy bears in the prepared glasses. Observe as the gummy bears float, swirl, and absorb the flavors, creating a playful presentation.
- Serve and Enjoy: Garnish with additional gummy bears on skewers or floating in the drink. Serve immediately with a straw and enjoy your refreshing gummy bear fizz.
Notes
- Use Haribo classic gummy bears for best texture as they hold up well in liquid.
- To adjust sweetness, use Sprite for a sweeter drink or Perrier Lemon Sparkling Water for a lighter, less sweet version.
- Mix juice and soda in advance and refrigerate; add gummy bears right before serving to prevent them from dissolving.
- For parties, batch the recipe and serve in a large dispenser with gummy bears on the side for guest customization.
- Optional garnishes like sugar rims and fresh fruit slices add an elegant touch.
