Description

Homemade Real Fruit Irish Cream Soda is a refreshing, non-alcoholic beverage combining fresh strawberries, creamy whipped heavy cream, and fizzy club soda for a unique summer drink. This creamy soda offers a natural, fruity sweetness enhanced by vanilla and a bubbly finish, perfect for warm days or family gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale

Fruit Mixture

  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
  • 2 tablespoons sugar (adjust to taste)

Cream Mixture

  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Beverage Base & Garnish

  • 2 cups club soda or sparkling water
  • Ice cubes
  • Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Strawberries: In a bowl, combine the sliced strawberries and sugar. Let them macerate for about 10 minutes until they release their natural juices, enhancing the sweetness and flavor.
  2. Make the Cream Mixture: In a separate bowl, whisk the heavy cream together with vanilla extract until soft peaks form—take care not to overwhip to maintain a fluffy texture.
  3. Combine Ingredients: Add a few tablespoons of the strawberry mixture into each glass, then fill the glass with ice cubes. Pour the club soda or sparkling water over the ice and gently stir to mix the ingredients without losing the fizz.
  4. Top with Cream: Spoon the whipped cream mixture carefully on top of the soda and strawberries, allowing the cream to float attractively on the surface for a layered appearance.
  5. Garnish and Serve: Garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired and serve immediately with a straw for the best refreshing experience.

Notes

  • Adjust the sugar quantity based on the sweetness of your strawberries.
  • For a dairy-free alternative, substitute heavy cream with coconut cream and check that it whips well.
  • The drink is best served immediately to maintain the fizzy texture of the soda.
  • Experiment with other fruits like raspberries or blueberries for variations.
  • Use chilled club soda or sparkling water for an extra refreshing effect.
