Main Ingredients
- ½ cup gummy bears (plus extra for garnish!)
- 1 cup lemon-lime soda (such as Sprite or 7UP)
- 1 cup fruit juice (choose your favorite: mango, cranberry, pineapple, or blue raspberry punch)
- ½ cup club soda or sparkling water
- Ice cubes (optional)
Optional Garnishes
- Gummy bears on skewers
- Fresh fruit slices (orange, lime, or lemon)
- Sugar (for rimming glasses)
- Lemon juice (for rimming glasses)
- Prepare the Glasses: Add about ¼ cup of gummy bears to the bottom of each tall glass. If you want to create a sugar rim, dip the rim of each glass into lemon juice, then dip it into sugar to add a sparkling effect.
- Mix the Base: In a large cup or small pitcher, combine the fruit juice with the lemon-lime soda. Stir in the club soda or sparkling water to give the drink extra fizzy bubbles.
- Pour and Watch the Magic Happen: Pour the mixed liquid into the prepared glasses over the gummy bears. Watch as the gummy bears float, swirl, and begin to soak up the flavors of the drink.
- Serve and Enjoy: Add a few more gummy bears on a skewer or floating on top for added fun and garnish with fresh fruit slices if desired. Serve with a straw and enjoy your fizzy, sweet, and fruity candy-inspired drink!
Notes
- For a sweeter drink, use Sprite as the lemon-lime soda. For a lighter, less sweet option, use Perrier Lemon Sparkling Water.
- To keep gummy bears from dissolving too quickly, add them just before serving, especially if making ahead or batching for parties.
- You can prep the juice and soda mixture in advance and store it in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
- Gummy bears left soaking in the drink for too long will become soft, so add them fresh when ready to serve.
- Try different fruit juice combinations to customize the flavor, such as tropical mango or tangy cranberry.
