Substitute
You can swap ingredients in this Pear Vanilla Fizz Mocktail to match what’s in your kitchen. Each change will create a slightly different taste while keeping the drink refreshing.
Replace pear juice with apple juice or white grape juice for a similar fruity base. These options blend well with vanilla and create the same light sweetness.
For the vanilla syrup, try maple syrup or honey mixed with a few drops of vanilla extract. Plain simple syrup works too if you want less vanilla flavor.
Club soda gives the drink its fizz. Sparkling water or ginger ale make good replacements. Note: Ginger ale adds extra sweetness.
Fresh herbs can take the place of the mint garnish:
- Basil leaves
- Rosemary sprigs
- Thyme sprigs
Pro tip:Â Always taste test after making substitutions. Add more or less of any ingredient to match your taste preferences.
