Do you enjoy wrapping gifts? I seriously LOVE it! Since I make a big deal, almost party-level, about our Christmas wrapping, I thought it’d be from to make it even more ‘magical’ with these TWO delicious and easy-to-make drink recipes: Pomegranate Lemonade & Fruity Sparkle! No alcohol, so even your kids can enjoy these bubbly beverages!

I can’t remember how long ago we started, but it was a tradition for my mom and I (sometimes my dad, unless he was able to find a good excuse to avoid it) to lock ourselves in her room – or the heated garage – and spend hours wrapping EVERYTHING at once. It was so fun listening to music, picking which fun wrapping paper for each gift, checking off lists, and chatting with her. Fun food and drinks was always required – and this year I grabbed a few flavors of DASANI Sparkling Water from Walmart to help me out!

This is the 3rd Christmas since we moved to Texas and I’ve been unable to do a big wrapping party with my mom. I’ll admit, it’s one of those traditions that I dearly miss! Now my ‘parties’ are smaller, since it’s just us, but I still make it a big deal. This year my girl even got to help (not with HER presents, of course!) and we had a really great time! Just one more way you can make the holiday SPARKLE this season is by making even the wrapping part fun, social and TASTY!

The reason I wanted to use DASANI Sparkling Water was not only the amazing taste and bubble, but it’s the perfect mixer because it’s unsweetened, there’s zero calories, and no artificial colors or caffeine. There’s 4 yummy flavors (in 12 packs of 12 oz. cans) to choose from: Lime, Berry, Lemon and Black Cherry.
