Orange Blossom Fizz Mocktail Recipe

ByJohn

Are you craving a light, citrusy drink that feels a bit special but skips the alcohol? My Orange Blossom Fizz Mocktail is super easy to make and seriously packed with fresh, uplifting flavors.

It’s a fun pick when you want something more interesting than plain soda or juice. I love serving this at gatherings, or honestly, just when I want to treat myself to something a little unique.

The mix of orange, honey, and those floral notes really makes every sip bright and refreshing. You don’t need a bunch of fancy ingredients or special tools, either.

Let me walk you through my simple recipe and a few tips for getting that perfect fizz every time.

Equipment

  • Cocktail shaker: I use this to mix everything and make sure the orange blossom flavor gets everywhere it should.
  • Measuring jigger or spoons: Getting the right balance really depends on measuring—otherwise, it can go sideways fast.
  • Citrus juicer: A handheld juicer helps me get every drop out of my oranges and lemons.
  • Fine mesh strainer: I don’t love pulp, so I pour the juice through this to catch seeds and bits.
  • Tall glass: Highball or Collins glasses are my go-to. More room for ice and fizz, and it just looks better.
  • Bar spoon: I use it for gentle stirring so the soda keeps its bubbles.
  • Ice: Always plenty of ice. It chills and dilutes the drink just enough.

Ingredients

  • 2 oz 60 ml fresh orange juice – I always squeeze it myself. The flavor is just brighter, trust me.
  • 0.5 oz 15 ml fresh lemon juice – Adds acidity and keeps the sweetness in check.
  • 0.75 oz 22 ml honey syrup – I make this by stirring together equal parts honey and water until it’s smooth.
  • 0.5 tsp orange blossom water – Just a little. Too much can be a bit much honestly.
  • 3-4 oz 90-120 ml club soda – Goes in last for that fizz.
  • Ice cubes – Keeps things cold without watering it down too quickly.
  • Optional garnish: Sometimes I’ll toss in an orange wheel lemon twist, or a few edible flowers if I want to get fancy.

Instructions

Notes

I always start with fresh, high-quality juice. Fresh squeezed citrus really does make a difference. If I’m in the mood for something sweeter, I just add a touch more honey syrup.
Be careful with the orange blossom water. More than half a teaspoon and it can take over the whole drink. Club soda should go in right before serving, so the bubbles don’t disappear on you.
No honey syrup? Simple syrup or agave work in a pinch. If I’m feeling adventurous, I’ll swap the club soda for sparkling mineral water. I usually tweak the ice and sweetness as I go, depending on my mood.

Tasting Notes

When I take a sip of the Orange Blossom Fizz Mocktail, the first thing I notice is that gentle scent of orange blossoms. It’s fresh, bright—almost like a tiny burst of spring in a glass.

The taste is sweet, but there’s a nice tang from the citrus. There’s also this soft floral note that’s unique but doesn’t overpower everything else.

The texture is light and fizzy. I really like how the bubbles dance around and make the whole thing more fun. It never feels thick or syrupy to me.

Aftertaste is mild, with a lingering hint of orange and a little sweetness. I don’t find it harsh or sharp at all. It’s smooth, easy to drink.

Definitely serve it cold. The flavors feel cleaner, and the finish is crisp. Each ingredient comes through, but nothing takes over—just how I like it.

Must Have Ingredients

Substitute

Sometimes, I just don’t have every ingredient sitting around. Or maybe I want to tweak the flavor a little. Here are some quick swaps I’ve used:

I try to keep the proportions close to the original recipe, though sometimes I eyeball it.

Whenever I swap things, I taste and tweak—maybe a bit more sweetener, or a splash of something extra. If the mocktail ends up too strong, I just toss in more sparkling water or a handful of ice.
