I decided to make this because it’s summer and the Texas heat is REAL! This drink is so refreshing and it only involves a few ingredients to make. Plus it’s not overly sweet which is one of the reasons I really enjoy it!
EVERYTHING YOU’LL NEED TO MAKE This Pineapple Italian Cream Soda
- Pineapple: Pineapples are one of the fruits I associate with summer and vacations! So adding it to a drink makes it extra refreshing! Plus pineapples are loaded with health benefits!
- Honey: instead of using processed sugar, we natural sweeten the pineapple syrup used in this drink with honey.
- Sparkling Water: this is your choice entirely, so pick your favorite! For ours, I used the Spindrift Lime because I thought lime would compliment the pineapple flavors well!
- Creamer: this is also your choice! The most common for an Italian Soda is half & half, but for ours, I used Nutpod creamer because I really like it and we tend to always have a carton in the fridge because I add it to my coffee every morning. So if I don’t have to buy something extra to make something I’m craving, that’s a win in my book 🙂
