Notes
I love the Arancino Organic Blood Orange Soda brand of soda found at Costco for this drink, but I realize that it may not be accessible to everyone, so I think any blood orange or better quality orange soda will do. Also feel free to add in any other fruit you like, as you see I tossed in a few strawberries.
