If you're looking for a perfect non-alcoholic drink this summer, give this Fresh Strawberry Soda a try!

This homemade soda is SO tasty, perfect for adults or kids and great for serving at a party or BBQ. If you prefer, you can also add your favorite alcohol for an adult beverage.

It's such an amazing way to use all those delicious, fresh summer berries from your garden or the farmer's market. Frozen works great too! I made some recently with frozen cherries and we loved it.

This stores well in the fridge or freezer and the recipe can easily be doubled or tripled if your serving to a crowd.

All of my taste testers loved the flavor and freshness and it's so light compared to store bought soda. It's also more affordable and with only four ingredients, so much better for you as well.
