Adding Sparkling Orange Lemonade to the menu makes any meal a celebration. It can be enjoyed by grownups and kids alike.
Some other fun and delicious drinks you might want to try include: Spiced Apple Cider, Homemade Eggnog or Fruit Slush.
When I was a little girl, whenever we went out to eat, my father always ordered what he called a “half and half.” I think it was his own personal concoction and he would explain to the waiter when they asked what it was that it was half orange juice and half lemonade.
My father didn’t drink alcohol so this was always his drink of choice. I always loved it when I got to order a “half and half” too. It was even better when they put a cherry in it!
With the holidays coming I always like to have a special drink to serve with our holiday meal or at a party. My father’s half and half or what I now call Sparkling Orange Lemonade is perfect. It’s light, pretty and easy to make with just a few ingredients.

How to Make Sparkling Orange Lemonade
- Fill the glass with ice.
- Add orange juice so the glass is half full.
- Fill the other half with lemonade.
- Leave a little space to add in some Soleil Blood Orange Sparkllng Water. Not only does it give the drink some bubbles but it adds some additional flavor.
Soleil is one Albertson’s award winning brands. Albertson’s own brands recently won 20 ‘Best Product Awards’ and Soleil was one of them. It was chosen over hundreds of product entries.
Albertson’s Signature Select also has Seltzer Water if you just want bubbles and no additional flavor.
Of course, top your sparkling orange lemonade with a cherry. It adds some color and it’s just plain fun. It makes me feel like a kid again!
Whether you are entertaining friends or just a intimate family dinner, a sparkling orange lemonade is always a fun thing to add to the menu. My dad’s favorite combo was always orange juice and lemonade but you could get creative and add in any of your favorite fruit juices.
And don’t forget the straw!
