Strawberry Blueberry Sparkling Drink
🍓 The Romantic Layered Sparkling Drink: A Strawberry Soda with Blueberry Twist
This Strawberry Blueberry Sparkling Drink is more than a beverage—it’s a layered experience designed for those who love romantic visuals and refreshing summer mocktails.
Blending the richness of strawberry jam with the bright lift of sparkling water and the natural acidity of blueberries, it becomes a dreamy pink drink with a playful, effervescent character.
The drink begins with a bold, vivid red foundation made from strawberry jam, creating a stable base for the signature layered drink aesthetic. When topped with sparkling water, delicate bubbles rise and interact with edible shimmer powder, producing a glowing effect reminiscent of floating ribbons or soft blush tones found in a classic strawberry soda drink.
Blueberries are tucked between the ice cubes, adding depth, visual contrast, and a gentle berry tartness—similar to what you’d expect from a refreshing blueberry soda.
