I have been wanting to do this series for a while and I am finally sitting down, planning and executing it! I am so excited to bring to you guys my Twilight refreshers, inspired by some of my favorite parts of the Twilight books and movies. Depending on which you prefer.
I used to be a diehard Edward fan but since growing up, getting married and becoming a mom to three, I am very much a Jacob fan but Bella didnt deserve him. lol
Anyways, I wanted to create this refresher series last fall but completely forgot about it, this year I saw everything coming out with Coffees and Lattes inspired by Twilight but nothing for those of us who dont drink coffee. So let me introduce you to my Twilight Refreshers, and to kick things off with a moody fall Monday, we have Bella Swan!
Tips: I make this drink with tart cherry juice but this can also be made with blood orange, or pomegranate juice, you want a lovely dark red color to simulate Bella going from blood filled human to vampire.
I also like to freeze my fruit juice into ice cubes so that way I don’t have to use water ice, and I can save the fruit juice instead of tossing leftovers I might not use. If you buy a bottle of juice, simply freeze some in an ice cube tray, then use about 3 to 4 pieces of ice cubes in your drink then top with sparkling water or other mixins.
Bella Swan Refresher
1/3c Tart cherry Juice
1c Sparkling water
Ice and Cherry garnish
Directions
Fill your glass with a 1/3c of Tart cherry Juice, your welcome to add more or less to your preference. Then top with ice, and slowly begin to top with sparkling water till you reach the top of your glass, or to your liking. Top off your drink with a nice cherry. You can even add some whipped cream before adding your cherry for a fun cream filled drink. Enjoy!
