Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Fresh oranges
- 2 tablespoons Honey (or agave syrup)
- 3 cups Sparkling water
- 2 cups Ice cubes
- 4 slices Orange slices (optional, for garnish)
- 4 leaves Fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Wash the oranges thoroughly under running water.
Slice the oranges in half and use a citrus juicer to extract the juice into a bowl or measuring cup. You should yield about 1.5 to 2 cups of fresh orange juice.
In a small bowl, mix the honey (or agave syrup) with 2 tablespoons of warm water to dilute it slightly. Stir until the honey is dissolved.
In a large pitcher, combine the freshly squeezed orange juice and the diluted honey. Stir well to mix.
Divide the ice cubes evenly among four glasses.
Pour the orange juice mixture into each glass, filling them halfway.
Top off each glass with sparkling water, filling it to the brim. Stir gently to combine.
Garnish each glass with an orange slice and a mint leaf for an extra touch of elegance, if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Orange Sparklers!
