TROPICAL BANANA SPARKLERS

Tropical banana sparklers are tasty mocktail drinks that the whole family can enjoy. Made with bananas, pineapple-flavored sparkling water, and a little honey, these drinks are easy, sweet, and full of carbonated fun.

Our family LOVES mocktails, and I’m always on the lookout for new and creative ways to make a fun drink. I discovered Dasani Sparkling beverages last year, and I have to say, I’m hooked! I love that it’s naturally flavored sparkling water- no added sugar, no caffeine, and zero calories. Sometimes I just crave that carbonation, so it’s great to have this delicious alternative to regular soda.

My kids adore it too- especially when you create something incredible with it, as I did with these Tropical Banana Sparklers! Just 3 ingredients, and you won’t believe how good they taste. The sweet banana mixed in with the tropical flavors- all with the added sparkle that everyone loves. Yum!

This tropical banana soda drink is perfect for the whole family because there’s no alcohol. The drinks are fancy and fun. Serve them up in a festive glass for any celebration (like ringing in the New Year). You’ll be surprised by how fast this drink becomes the talk of the party, as everyone will be begging for another glassful!

Tropical Banana Sparklers Ingredients

Sparkling water- You will need 2 12-ounce sized cans of Dasani sparkling tropical pineapple flavor for the base of this recipe. If you can’t find Dasani, you can use a different brand!

Bananas– Use 2 heaping cups of frozen ripe bananas for added thickness, sweetness, and flavor.

Honey– To give this drink a little more sweetness, you’ll want to use 2 tablespoons of honey or agave.

How to Make Tropical Banana Sparklers

Prep bananas

Slice the ripe bananas about 1 1/2″ thick. You want bananas that are ripe but still hold their shape. (Ripe bananas are sweeter!)

Place the bananas in a freezer bag and freeze for 2-3 hours or until solid.

Blend bananas

Place frozen banana slices in a blender or food processor.

Add in the honey. Blend until smooth and creamy. (I found it was easier to pulse at first, then once it got creamier, I could blend it easier.)

Assemble

Spoon the banana whip into individual glasses until they’re 1/3 to 1/2 full.

Top with pineapple flavored sparkling water. Stir several times gently.

Garnish with a pineapple slice and a fun straw.

Enjoy!
