Paleo Soda Pop?
I found this on a Facebook Page today, thought I'd share, and that posting would help remind me to make it. In a 1 quart mason jar add ice and 2-4 T. Raw Apple Cider Vinegar, 1 teas. powdered ginger and stevia (or sweetner).
Fill to top with carbonated water! Stir! I will never drink soda again, some times I add a little lime. I got a bottle of Perrier at the store to try it.

Well that sounds interesting, sort of like a ginger ale? Let us know how it goes.0

Love the sound of the cider vinegar and ginger, I drink soda water with bitters and lime at night so maybe I will try this out for variation. Maybe with honey though? I don't eat stevia.....dunno how I would combine the honey in cold h2O though.0

Paleo Soda Pop?
No such thing.
Doesn't matter if the ingredients are paleo - the result still isn't.0 -
I've been weaning myself off of diet soda for the last few days. It's day 3 of being diet soda free
Got some plain carbonated water and lemon and lime slices instead.
The recipe sounds interesting but i think the sweet fizzy-ness of it might make me want to go back to drinking the "real" stuff again. Let us know what you think though.0 -
Have you tried kombucha? Its fizzy, tastes good, is loaded with probiotics and, if you don't want to buy it, it sounds relatively easy to make. Might be a good sub for those soda cravings?0

And by what logic would you say that mixing together a series of Paleo foods yields a non-Paleo result?
Paleo people cook, chop, simmer, boil, steam, roast, stir, mix etc etc their Paleo food, too.
It's still Paleo after you stir it up.0 -
I haven't tried Kombucha, honestly, I'm kind of scared of it.0

Sounds like it will either be gross or delicious but I'm willing to give it a shot.0

I hate the smell of ACV. I use it as a hair rinse and have to hold my nose the whole time. It's worth it, though.
Try Kevita Sparkling Probiotic drinks. Carbonated just like soda or kombucha, but due to fermentation. Very low sugar, but without the sourness of Kombucha. I love it. I drink 1/2 bottle a day, sometimes whole bottle to help keep me away from Diet Coke. Good probiotics and fills the mental addiction for bubbly drink. Expensive, but only drinking 1/2 bottle at a time makes it affordable.0 -

Um...kombucha is fermented (and is bubbly because of said fermentation).I haven't tried Kombucha, honestly, I'm kind of scared of it.
You'd probably like it, actually. Especially if you like that soda recipe.
Also, another option for bubbly drinks is water kefir. If you do a second fermentation, you can make it somewhat carbonated.
And on a side note, if you end up deciding you like carbonated water (or carbonated water plus fruit or whatever), you might want to consider investing in a SodaStream. It's great for carbonating water, and far less expensive than Perriere.0 -
I tried that recipe and at first it was good, then totally gross.0
