Soft Drink Substitute--my Orangina

This concoction came from two things:

1. I love Orangina but it has 110 calories per cup
2. I have been trying to back off diet soda (POISON!) but have a craving for something fizzy.

I mixed about a cup and a half of Pellegrino with about 1/2 cup of Tropicana Trop 50 with some ice. Tastes almost like Orangina! Only 25 calories! A squeeze of lemon in Pellegrino with ice is still lower in calories but, this really hits the soda pop spot!

    ...Orangina? That sounds like a combination of oranges and vagina.... Ahem, I mean..

    sounds good!

    what about zevia diet soda, since that uses stevia as well?

    i personally don't like it (tastes like nasty flavoured vodka) but you may like it!
