Homemade Real Fruit Irish Cream Soda combines the creamy richness of Irish cream with the natural sweetness of fresh fruit, all topped off with fizzy club soda. This refreshing, indulgent drink is perfect for hot days or as a special treat, customizable with different fruits for added variety.

Ingredients

1 cup fresh fruit (such as strawberries, raspberries, or peaches), chopped

12 tablespoons honey or sugar (optional, to taste)

1/2 cup Irish cream liqueur (non-alcoholic or regular, depending on preference)

1 cup club soda (or sparkling water)

Ice cubes

Fresh fruit slices (optional, for garnish)

Fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the fruit: If using fresh fruit like strawberries or peaches, chop them into small pieces. If using berries, lightly mash them to release their juices. For a smoother consistency, blend the fruit into a puree.
  2. Sweeten the fruit: In a small bowl, mix the chopped fruit with honey or sugar (if using) to taste. Let it sit for a few minutes to draw out the fruit juices and dissolve the sweetener.
  3. Assemble the drink: Fill a glass with ice cubes, then add the sweetened fruit mixture to the glass. Adjust the amount of fruit based on how fruity you want the drink.
  4. Add Irish cream: Pour the Irish cream liqueur over the fruit and ice, stirring gently to combine the flavors.
  5. Top with soda: Slowly pour the club soda or sparkling water into the glass to give it a fizzy finish. Stir gently but avoid losing too many bubbles.
  6. Garnish and serve: Garnish with fresh fruit slices or mint leaves if desired. Serve immediately while the drink is cold and bubbly!
  7. Enjoy: Sip and savor your refreshing, creamy Homemade Real Fruit Irish Cream Soda!

Notes

Berry Blend: Combine strawberries, raspberries, and blackberries for a rich, berry-flavored version.

Non-Alcoholic Version: Use non-alcoholic Irish cream to make this drink suitable for all ages while maintaining the creamy flavor.

For extra creaminess, add a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a dessert-like experience.

Spicy Version: Add a pinch of cinnamon or ginger to add a little warmth and spice to the drink.
