Raspberry Rose Prebiotic Soda

Olivia Carter
You have to try this! I cracked the code to making those trendy prebiotic sodas at home, and honestly, they taste way fresher than the canned ones. This Raspberry Rose flavor is my favorite—it's sweet, tangy, and gives your tummy bacteria a happy little dance party. Plus, it only costs like a buck to make instead of paying $\mathbf{\$ 5}$ at the store.

Equipment

  • A little pot a small saucepan
  • A fine strainer (to get those raspberry seeds out)
  • Measuring spoons and cups
  • A jar with a lid an airtight container) to save the syrup
  • Your fanciest glass for sipping!

Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup Filtered Water The humble beginning
  • ¼ cup Fresh or Frozen Raspberries The main star! Natural flavor and color
  • 5-7 grams Chicory Root Inulin Powder This is the fiber power!
  • 1 tbsp Raw Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV) The necessary tang—it's what makes it functional
  • Monk Fruit or Stevia Drops Your sweetie substitute (optional)
  • ½ tsp Pure Rose Water The secret ingredient that makes it fancy
  • 8-10 oz Chilled Sparkling Water Hello, bubbles!

Instructions
 

  • Syrup Time: Throw the water, raspberries, Inulin Powder, ACV, and any sweetener you're using into your little pot.
    A hand adding liquid sweetener drops to a small white pot containing water, fresh raspberries, and inulin powder on a rustic wooden counter. A bottle of apple cider vinegar sits nearby, illustrating the initial steps of syrup preparation.
  • Heat it Up: Cook it on the stove over medium heat. Stir it constantly until that fiber powder is totally dissolved and the raspberries are nice and squishy (5 mins). Give the berries a good mash with your spoon.
    A hand stirring a bubbling red raspberry mixture in a white saucepan on a gas stove burner. Steam rises from the pot as the raspberries soften, indicating the cooking process for the soda syrup.
  • Strain Like a Pro: Pour the hot mix through your fine-mesh strainer into your storage jar. Push down on those raspberry bits to get every drop of juice out. Say goodbye to the seeds! Now, stir in the Rose Water.

  • Chillin': Seal the jar and let that syrup chill in the fridge for at least 30 minutes. Ice-cold syrup makes the best soda, trust me. (P.S. This syrup lasts up to a week!)
  • Build Your Bubbly Masterpiece: Grab your glass and fill it with ice. Add 2 - 3 tablespoons of the cold, concentrated syrup.
  • Fizzy Finish: Top the whole thing off with 8-10 oz of your super-chilled sparkling water. Give it one gentle stir, and enjoy your healthy new addiction!

Notes

  • Best Fizz Hack: If you have a SodaStream, use it! Homemade carbonated water is extra cold, which keeps the drink fizzy longer.
  • The Tummy Warning: Since this has a legit amount of fiber (5-7g), your gut might be surprised if it's not used to it. If you're sensitive, start with just 3 grams of inulin powder in the recipe for the first few days, then slowly increase. Nobody wants unexpected bloating!
  • Make it Simple: If you don't have rose water, it's still good! It just becomes a fantastic Raspberry ACV Soda. No biggie.
  • Storage: Keep the leftover syrup in the fridge and use it in plain sparkling water, or even in tea for a little flavor boost!
