Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- ½ cup gummy bears (plus extra for garnish)
- 1 cup lemon-lime soda (such as Sprite or 7UP)
- 1 cup fruit juice (your choice – mango, cranberry, pineapple, or blue raspberry punch)
- ½ cup club soda or sparkling water (optional, for extra fizz)
- Ice cubes (optional, to keep chilled)
Optional Garnishes
- Gummy bears on skewers
- Fresh fruit slices (orange, lime, or lemon)
- Sugar for rimming glasses
Instructions
- Prepare the Glasses: Add approximately ¼ cup of gummy bears to the bottom of each tall glass. If you want a sugar rim, dip the glass rims in lemon juice followed by a dip in sugar to create a sparkling effect.
- Mix the Base: In a large measuring cup or small pitcher, combine the fruit juice with the lemon-lime soda. Stir in the club soda or sparkling water to add extra fizz and lighten the sweetness.
- Pour and Watch the Magic Happen: Carefully pour the mixed beverage into the prepared glasses over the gummy bears. Observe as the gummy bears float, swirl, and begin to absorb the flavors, adding a fun texture and color to the drink.
- Serve and Enjoy: Garnish with additional gummy bears on skewers or floating atop the drink. Add a straw for easy sipping and serve immediately for maximum fizz and freshness.
Notes
- Use Haribo classic gummy bears for the best texture that holds up well in liquid without dissolving too fast.
- For a sweeter drink, use Sprite; for a less sweet but bubbly option, use Perrier Lemon Sparkling Water.
- Feel free to customize fruit juice combinations; mango juice pairs exceptionally well with lemon-lime soda for a tropical flavor.
- Prepare the juice and soda mix ahead of time and refrigerate; add gummy bears just before serving to prevent them from getting too soft.
- To batch for parties, triple the recipe and use a large dispenser, serving gummy bears separately for guests to add themselves.
- Store mixed juice and soda (without gummy bears) in the fridge for up to 24 hours; gummy bears soften quickly if left in the liquid.
