Natural Orange Sparkling Soda

I taught my first cooking class last week and it was so much fun! I got a small group of neighborhood friends together and had my first practice run. We made caprese snacks, Fourth of July fruit salad which was a combination of watermelon with blueberries, chicken and cheese quesadillas and a very healthy version of Orange Sparkling Soda! The kids loved it all, but especially went crazy over the the orange soda so I thought I should share it with you. I actually stopped drinking soda about 7 years ago. A few times a year I will induldge and find it is just too sweet, needless to say I don't buy soda for my children, but they do have it every now and then. This is my version of a healthy go to sparking orange soda that your entire family will love! The secret is fresh squeezed oranges and fresh mint, making this the ultimate in a refreshing summer beverage.
Let me know what you think.
Bon Appetit,
