Drinks

Welcome to all of the delicious beverage recipes I’ve shared over the years.

I developed the majority of these drinks in an effort to avoid the refined sugar, artificial flavors, and suspicious additives found in their store-bought counterparts – without sacrificing any of the satisfaction.

Here, you’ll find everything from homemade strawberry soda and strawberry milk to fresh, cold-pressed fruit juices and refreshing infused waters in every fruit flavor imaginable. There are even a few smoothies thrown into the mix.

As a Russian-born Canadian, it should come as no surprise that I’ve also included several tea recipes, from simple, fresh herb infusions to more exciting blends like raspberry jasmine tea. I even have articles to teach you how to make your tea taste absolutely amazing!

And because I love a good holiday drink, there are also a handful of festive options, like cinnamon hot chocolate, Christmas punch (both alcoholic and non-alcoholic), and German mulled wine. Cheers!
