How to Make Bubbling Limeade

Make a great punch for your next party. This version of limeade uses a carbonated beverage such as Sprite, 7-Up or seltzer water to make up the limeade. It makes a great base for an alcoholic punch or one that is popular with children. You can make this punch in a few minutes and have it ready to go the next time friends drop by.

Things You'll Need

• Frozen limeade
• Ice cubes
• Water
• 2 2-liter bottles of Seltzer water or Sprite or 7-Up

Instructions

1. Take the frozen concentrate for the limeade out of the freezer and allow to thaw. Speed this process by placing it in the sink with warm water. If speed is of the essence, you can empty the frozen base into a blender and add one can of water. Blend for a few minutes to soften and liquefy the base.

2. Empty the concentrate into a pitcher or punch bowl. Add one can of water and mix well. If you have used the blender method, do not add more water. Add a few trays of ice cubes to chill the base well.

3. Open the bottles of seltzer and add it to the base. Stir the contents of the punch bowl or pitcher well. Sample the punch. If the taste is too tart, add either sugar or Splenda. The alternative is to add a bottle of either Sprite or 7-Up to sweeten the punch. Taste the punch once more to ensure it tastes right and then serve to your guests.
