Grandma's Old-Time Soft Drink Recipes Make Authentic Sodas And Soft Drinks


Soft Drink Dessert Recipes

Grandma's authentic soft drink recipes are fun to try! These hard-to-find, non-alcoholic beverage recipes were first published in the 1800s, but it is likely that some are much older. Families often used such recipes for generations before they were first published.

With these old-time soda pop recipes, soda fountain recipes, vinegar shrub recipes, and summer drink recipes, you can make all manner of refreshing sodas and homemade soft drinks right in your own kitchen.

Your friends will be amazed when they taste them, and you will have the satisfaction of making something normally only bought. These recipes for homemade soft drinks really are easy to make, and the results are so good tasting.

Good, Refreshing Taste

If you love good, refreshing taste, you will find the taste of beverages made from these vintage soft drink recipes to be unique. It's a taste that's far superior to that of most store-bought beverages.

Homemade soft drinks are not as sweet and contain no harmful additives and chemical preservatives -- only fresh, all-natural ingredients. You get to control the sweetness, and you get to choose the all-natural ingredients. That's why these drinks are good for you.

Some homemade soft drink recipes may call for raw, uncooked eggs or egg whites. Unfortunately, egg-related Salmonellosis infects some present-day eggs and it's no longer wise to consume raw egg products. To avoid any risk, you must either preheat the egg mixture to reach 160°F (71°C) or use the pasteurized egg products that are now available in food stores. Please refer to Eggs and Salmonella for simple, easy instructions on how to adapt the vintage recipes safely.

My Dad's First Soda Pop

I can recall my father telling me of the time he tasted his first soda pop. It was in 1912, when he was four years old and growing up on the Alberta prairie. He once accompanied his father, Ernest Leopold Bell, and D. P. McDonald, a close friend of his father's and owner of the Mount Royal Ranch, to Cochrane to attend a horse auction. More ranchers joined them, and the men entered the local saloon to talk.

The old bartender asked whether the boy would have a sarsaparilla. The large glass of fizzy, dark-colored liquid took some time to drink, and young Billy could not understand why the men's drinks came in such "little" glasses. Ever since I heard that story I wondered what that old-fashioned soda pop would have tasted like. Thanks to these original soft drink recipes, I can now know.

It's Easy To Make Soft Drinks

It is not difficult to make your own soft drinks and sodas when you use Grandma's old-fashioned recipes, and the results are most rewarding. You will get to experience the wholesome, refreshing, delicious soft drinks your great-grandparents once enjoyed as children. Simply follow the easy beverage recipes and don't be afraid to experiment.

Believe me, once you taste it, you will love it. Make yourself an old-time soft drink and experience the nostalgic taste today.
