I like to entertain with wine spritzers because they are bubbly and sweet which makes them perfect for a party, but they also help to stretch my budget by mixing the wine with 7UP® or Canada Dry Gingerale®. I picked up 2L bottles of the soda at Walmart for just $1 each!!
Then I poured in the 7UP® to fill the glass about three quarters of the way. Now it's ready to serve and enjoy!
The ratio of wine to soda is about 2 parts wine to 1 part soda, but you can change that up to suit your tastes. Use 7UP® if you like your drinks to be extra sweet. If you prefer a little less sweet then I would suggest using Canada Dry Gingerale®. It's nice to have both on hand to satisfy everyone's tastes.
It really doesn't get any easier than that. I like to mix it up a bit and use different flavors of 7UP® or Canada Dry Gingerale® such as cranberry or pomegranate. Different flavors give your guests fun options and the variety of colors makes your party even more festive!
You can find all of these great flavors at Walmart for just $1 each. They are located in the soda aisle...
