Summertime is the perfect time to relax and unwind with this bubbly non-alcoholic lemon lime spritzer. It's cool and refreshing and beautiful, too!
Isn't it funny what using a nice glass and some garnishes will do to elevate a drink? This lemon lime spritzer is delicious for sure, but it's not exactly a super fancy drink. But plop in some lemon and lime slices with a bit of mint and you have an elegant beverage to serve. It's crisp and refreshing, and pretty, too.

📖 Variations
Now of course, if you like, you could substitute the lemon sparkling water for white wine and add a splash of lemon-lime seltzer water instead. Or, use lemon-lime soda instead of sparkling water.
During the holidays, I like to add a splash of cranberry juice or pomegranate juice.
🍴 Serving Suggestions
Since there is no alcohol in these, they would make a lovely drink to serve at a baby shower. The green and yellow colors are so pretty together, I think. I mean, you could plan a whole baby shower around those colors for a mom who's going to be surprised by the gender.

💭 Frequently Asked Questions
Make your ice cubes out of fruit juice or lemonade instead of water. As the ice melts, it will add flavor to your drink, instead of watering it down.
