Ingredients

1 cup mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, chopped)

2 tablespoons honey or agave syrup

1 vanilla bean (split and seeds scraped out)

2 cups sparkling water or club soda

Juice of 1 lemon

Fresh mint leaves (for garnish)

Ice cubes

Instructions

Prepare the Berry Mixture: In a medium bowl, combine the mixed berries with honey or agave syrup. Add the lemon juice and half of the vanilla bean seeds. Gently mash the berries with a fork to release their juices, creating a chunky syrup. Set aside for about 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Assemble the Drink: Fill two glasses with ice cubes. Divide the berry mixture evenly between the glasses, scooping out any syrup remaining in the bowl.

Add Sparkling Water: Carefully pour the chilled sparkling water or club soda over the berry mixture in each glass. Give each glass a gentle stir to combine the ingredients without losing the bubbles.

Garnish: Top each fizz with the remaining vanilla bean seeds for an aromatic touch. Add a few mint leaves as a garnish.

Serve: Enjoy your refreshing Vanilla Bean Berry Fizz immediately while it's bubbly.
