Happy halfway through the week! This is just a mini post to share a refreshing little number I made the other night. I only had a tiny little bit of my favorite ginger ale left to go with my big ole bowl of popcorn, and that was not going to work. So, I pulled an orange out of the fridge, juiced it, and poured that and the ginger ale all over a glass of ice. Oh, it was good. Next time I’m going to try it with grapefruit juice—sort of like a salty dog that’s a little light on the salty. Mmm, I can already taste it… Cheers! (Clink.)

I loved that sipper so much that I decided to do something similar with citrus fruit. The best thing about this recipe is that you can have all the ingredients on-hand—both the ice cubes and soda store great for an extended amount of time—making it easy to pour one or a few anytime the mood strikes. This recipe makes a slightly sweet drink—which is the way I like them—but play with it a little to see what level of sweetness works for you. Need to adjust it? Just add or cut the amount of honey. Easy. Choose from three flavors below. Drink up!
