Equipment
- Ice Cube Trays
Ingredients
- Fanta Orange Soda
- SunnyD Tangy Original
- White Gatorade Zero Sugar (glacier cherry flavor)
Instructions
- Fill a glass cup OR clear plastic cup with ice.* I recommend using between a 16oz - 24oz cup. You can go smaller but the layers are easier to see in the larger size cup.
- Pour some orange Fanta soda into the cup, filling it up about 1/3 of the way. Let it sit for a few seconds so the soda can drain through the ice.
- Pour the SunnyD into the cup, over the back of a spoon, filling the cup another 1/3 of the way. * The spoon is important. Hold a dinner spoon upside down over the cup. As you pour the drink in, make sure to pour it over the back of the spoon. This helps the drink go into the cup gentle which will help the layers.
- For the final layer pour the zero sugar white gatorade, over the back of a spoon, to fill up the cup.
- You can serve right away or let the drink sit for about 20-30 seconds so the layers can become more defined.
Notes
Tip : There are no amounts listed for each drink in the recipe because it depends on what size cup you are using, and how many servings you need. If you are only making a few, then the smaller bottles of each rink would work fine. If you are making lots of them, then you probably want the full-size jugs or bottles of each drink.
Cup : Use a tall glass cup or clear plastic cups. Typically, I suggest using between a 16 oz - 24 oz cup. Of course, you can use a smaller cup (8 oz - 12 oz) but the layers are easier to see in the larger size cup.
Serving Tip : These drinks can sit for a few minutes but I recommend making them as you are serving them, or make them right before the part starts or something. As the drinks sit there for an extended amount of time, the ice cubes will melt and water down each layer, meaning that the layers won't be as defined. Don't just skip the ice to prevent this! The ice helps keep the layers separated and it keeps the drink cold.
Sugar Content : These layered drinks work because the sugar content is layered by highest to lowest. Use whatever you want for each layer but make sure the sugar content (per serving) is stacked highest to lowest. The top layer should be a white drink of any kind that is zero sugar or sugar-free.
