Bubbly Pomegranate Lemonade Mocktail

Ah, pregnancy.

One of the most stressful things a woman can go through, and yet, we take away her wine. It’s a cruel rule.

I’ve also got a bit of a sweet tooth (plus a pretty intense ice craving), so sometimes I like to make fun mocktails!

Today I’m sharing my recipe for Bubbly Pomegranate Lemonade here’s what you’ll need:

100% Pomegranate Juice
Blackberries
Lemon-Lime Zevia
Ice

Add a few blackberries to the bottom of your glass and crush them up
Add 1 shot glass of pomegranate juice
Top with Lemon-Lime Zevia
Garnish with a few more blackberries (optional: add a few mint leaves for garnish for a refreshing kick)
Add ice
Serve!

This makes a yummy and refreshing treat that curbs my sweet tooth and almost tastes reminiscent of a cocktail. Plus, it’s good for you!

I actually gave up soda when I was 19. There’s so many reasons not to drink it, I could go on for hours! Typically, the only time I ever have soda is when I’m sick, to help calm my stomach. So, when I’m pregnant I tend to have much more than ever before due to morning sickness. Which means I’m having more sugar than usual.

A great alternative is Zevia! Zevia has 0 calories and no sugar. It is sweetened with Stevia. Zevia is vegan, kosher, and gluten free. It’s a really great all natural alternative to soda that I can feel good about using in my mocktail recipes like this one. Oh, and it tastes really yummy!
