These Cold Pressed Watermelon Soda Floats are awesome and so refreshing! Plus, they are the perfect substitute for sugary soda drinks!
We really don’t drink a lot of sugary soda, like Coke or root beer, in our house, which means you won’t find root beer floats around here! We happily discovered that you can make a sparkling beverage from cold pressed juice with the KitchenAid Sparkling Beverage Maker!!
It’s so much fun to use and the style is so charming! We used cold pressed watermelon juice (Trader Joe’s has a great one!!), and then created a delicious bubbly beverage from it and poured it over scoops of vanilla ice cream and watermelon. Yum.
The Benefits of Cold Pressed Juice
These Soda Floats use cold pressed juice.
Cold pressed juice can help ease the strain of detoxification on your body. They’re chock full of nutrients that are geared towards fighting toxins and boosting immunity and health. Cold pressed juice is so potent and instantaneous because it lacks the fibrous pulp of the whole fruits and vegetables.
Perfect for 4th of July!
These cold pressed soda floats are a great addition to any 4th of July party. They’re refreshing – perfect for those balmy mid summer days – plus, they look great, with there red and white coloring. Sip one while watching the fireworks!
A Healthier Soda Float
This really is a healthier version of a float that you can feel better about eating. Way less sugar and additives than the usual floats, with only three ingredients!
These are the types of soda floats you’ll find in our house and I can’t wait to test out more fun recipes using the machine!!
