This is an incredible recipe book!

These recipes are easy, straightforward, + a fun twist on classic soda flavors. I am a lover of soda and make my own syrups at home for coffee and such regularly, so I'm super excited to try these recipes and flavor combinations!

Thank you to the author and The Collective Book Studio for my advance copy!

Fizz is a delightful book, full of delicious recipes for all different types of soda beverages. The photos are beautiful, representing the drinks well. Both photos and recipes are written to create desire in the reader. I can’t wait to try each and every one of the many recipes in Fizz.

This is a delightful book filled with all kinds of creative recipes for homemade sodas BUT my only complaint is that I was honestly really disappointed to find that it doesn’t have recipes for making traditional homemade sodas. I have made homemade sodas like elderflower soda for years the old fashioned way with wild yeast that naturally occurs on wild ingredients like elderflowers or a pinch of champagne yeast to naturally ferment them on the counter for a couple of days and then bottle and refrigerate them once they’re naturally bubbly but before they turn alcoholic (caveat— like kombucha, they have a tiny bit of natural alcohol, but so does real orange juice or an overripe banana).

I am going to see if I can convert some of these recipes to the old fashioned kind because I don’t want to buy a Soda Stream or bottles of seltzer, but it will be a bit tricky because these recipes are for making syrups to mix into carbonated water and not for making a jug of naturally fermented soda on your counter.

All that said, I know I’m ridiculously crunchy and old fashioned and that this is exactly the kind of recipes that the general population will love. Well recommended.

I read an advance copy of this book via netgalley.

A refreshing (pun intended) look at how to take something unhealthy for us and make it healthy, with a twist of nostalgia. Simple and easy recipes for anyone who loves sodas and entertaining.
