I love to entertain, it gives me satisfaction to have friends over and watch them enjoy the foods and drinks I serve. When creating recipes, I like them to be easy, but they must look complicated. I have signature dishes that my guests look forward to having but I like to have a special drink for everyone to try. When I was asked by 7UP to create and share recipes using this product I jumped all over it. I happen to use 7UP for many things! I’m going to share 2 great drink recipes made with 7UP that everyone can enjoy.
You have to remember that everyone might not like your drinks so it’s wise to have mixers that can go with everything. Keeping 7UP on hand is a must! Guests can drink it straight UP or use it as a mixer.
On a side note when I’m shopping at Stop & Shop (my local grocery store) I purchase 7UP to keep it stocked because there are so many recipes you can use it in. From main dishes, marinades and breads to desserts and drinks, 7UP is that “secret” ingredient to take things to the next level.
I chose 7UP for these 2 drink recipes because it’s crisp and fresh and all the flavors will complement each other.
Spring Up Spritzer
Ingredients:
7UP – 3.5 oz
Vodka – 1.5 oz
Rhubarb Shrub -.5 oz
Prosecco -2 oz
Fresh Strawberries
Directions:
In mixer combine 7UP, vodka, and rhubarb shrub. Stir and pour over ice about 3/4 of the way up in the glass. Add Prosecco, garnish with fresh strawberry. Enjoy!
**I have also added a splash of pomegranate
Punch It Up
This punch is a family favorite, has no alcohol, and is a hit with all ages. It takes about 3 mins to put together and looks beautiful!
Ingredients:
7UP – 2 liter
OJ – 1/2 gallon
Fruit Punch – 1 quart
Rainbow Sherbet
Directions:
In a punch bowl pour OJ, fruit punch, and 7UP. Scoop the rainbow sherbet and add to punch bowl. The sherbet will float on top and slightly melt to make a rainbow froth. I don’t serve it in the punch glasses because they are so small. I like at least a 60z clear glass so guests can enjoy the rainbow colors.

I make a similar 7 Up punch but with pineapple juice instead of OJ. I need to try this version next time.

Both of these beverage recipes sound fantastic! Since 7UP is so refreshing and light, it really does make the ideal drink ingredient.

I am saving the recipes. These drinks look so refreshing and would be great to serve during a party or family reunion. 7UP is good for mixing drinks, cooking, baking, and just as it is.

Yum! The spritzer would be my drink of choice for the summer! So light and refreshing.
