This homemade fizzy drink powder with citric acid and baking soda is an alternative to store-bought effervescent tablets. Mix citric acid, baking soda, fructose, and cornstarch in precise proportions and store in a clean, dry container with a tight-fitting lid. For one glass, stir two teaspoons of powder into warm water.

This recipe makes about 60 servings. Along with the fizzy drink, remember to drink plain water, which you can flavor with honey or lemon.

Instructions

Tip: tap a step to mark it as done.

  1. Mix all the ingredients thoroughly and transfer to a clean, dry container with a lid. For one drink, stir 2 tsp of powder into a glass of warm water. This amount makes up to 60 servings. To make a single drink right away, combine 1/4 tsp citric acid, 1/2 tsp baking soda, and 1/2 tsp fructose in a glass, then pour in warm water.

  2. Drink plenty of fluids after a long evening. In addition to the fizzy drink, try the following options.
  3. Water

    Choose plain chilled water for the simplest option, and add a little honey or lemon if desired.
  4. Green tea

    Try a cup of green tea for refreshment.
  5. Freshly made juices

    Make fresh juice from citrus fruit and kiwi.
  6. Tomato juice

    Serve tomato juice with a raw egg yolk added, if desired.
  7. Chicken broth

    Warm up with a simple, filling chicken broth.

Tip: Use a dry spoon to scoop out the powder, since even a drop of water will start the mixture fizzing in the container and cause it to clump. Store the container in a dry place away from the stove.
