Sparkling Peach Tea Blackberry Mocktail
The perfect way to cool off on a hot summer day, my Sparkling Peach Tea Blackberry Smash Mocktail is a family friendly drink filled with refreshing organic goodness!
About 15 years ago when Ray and I were in the first stages of our real food, healthy living journey, one of the first things we ditched were high fructose sweetened soda pops. While neither of us were soda-addicts we still both indulged occasionally.
We initially switched to homemade lemonade and sweet tea to curb our flavored-drink craving. While I was already drinking sparkling mineral water since I was a child, Ray wasn’t ready for the flavorless-carbonated water.
Where we live, in rural southwestern Pennsylvania, there aren’t a ton of healthier or gourmet grocery stores only the standard options. And back then the organic and better products simply were not available locally.
Except for SANPELLEGRINO®. Our local Walmart not only carried traditional SANPELLEGRINO Sparkling Mineral waters but also these cute cans of sparkling fruit beverages.
Not only did Ray fall in love with them, so did all the adults and kids who visited our home!
It’s been so exciting to watch their brand grow in offerings and popularity as seeking out better ingredients has become significantly more mainstream. And recently we’ve both been enjoying SANPELLEGRINO® Pesca &tè and Limone &tè!
3 Things I love about SANPELLEGRINO &tè:
They offer a delicate sparkling flavor with an organic juice blend with a hint of tea in perfectly sized single serving cans! Available in 2 flavors; Pesca = Peach & Limone = Lemon.
- Organic / Certified USDA ingredients
- Italian fruit juice with real tea extract
- 50 calories per can
AND This delicious NEW product is available at Walmart – both in store and online!
Although peaches aren’t currently in season (at the time of writing it this it’s early May) but with SANPELLEGRINO Pesca &tè I can still have all the peachy-delicious flavor!
If you haven’t paired peach and blackberry together, you’re seriously missing out!! But it’s especially amazing with that hint of tea extract in SANPELLEGRINO Pesca &tè!
How to Make a Sparkling Peach Tea Blackberry Smash Mocktail
Making a Sparkling Peach Tea Blackberry Smash Mocktail is so easy! Simply Smash a few organic blackberries in the bottom of your glass, then add lots of ice…..
Then pour in a whole can of SANPELLEGRINOÂ Pesca&Te on top! (Hint, you’re going to need a nice tall glass!)
I love how the blackberries hang out at the bottom. It looks so pretty AND I love a PUNCH of berry flavor at the end. But you can always give it a stir if you want the flavor more evenly distributed.
And don’t forget to give your drink the final touch, a garnish of fresh mint and berries! That’s what takes a plain drink and makes it feel like a fancy beverage, only it’s friendly for EVERYONE!
The flavors of sparkling peach tea with fresh blackberries and a hint of mint is such a refreshing summertime drink. Perfect for relaxing on the porch on a summer evening, yet easy enough to make them for a crowd at your next cookout!
