Berry Spritzer

If you love berries, especially big, sweet, ripe summer berries, then this Berry Spritzer is the perfect drink for you.

It's cold, bubbly, and fruity and made with REAL berries. It's super simple to throw together, but it's absolutely gorgeous. So it's the perfect drink for company.

Plus, this drink looks patriotic with its red and blue berries, so it's fun to serve all summer long for Memorial Day, 4th of July, and Labor Day for kids AND adults (adult-only directions are below!).

What Berries Should I Use?

I prefer to use strawberries and blueberries, but you can also add raspberries or blackberries if you like those better.

Can I Make this Berry Spritzer with Alcohol?

Yes, it's super easy to turn into an actual cocktail too! And a very pretty and tasty one at that.

Just add 1 cup of vodka, and substitute the soda for 3 cups of sparkling wine. Then follow the rest of the recipe as written.

Fresh or Frozen Berries?

Either work fine. But if you use fresh, you'll actually want to freeze them first, so that they're like ice cubes in the drink. So frozen may be preferred here so that you can skip the extra step.

Can Berry Spritzers Be Made Ahead of Time?

I don't recommend it, as the soda or sparkling wine will lose its carbonation.
