Orange Spritzer


This refreshing pretty drink is the easiest way to give a twist to an ordinary glass of orange juice. This is a nonalcoholic version of the spritzer which can be served to everyone.

   Spritzer means a spray or splash in German. It usually consists of wine and Carbonated water. Thankfully Spritzers also come in nonalcoholic versions using fruit /vegetable juices.

Soda drinks are too sweet and contain a lot of sugar which may not be liked by everyone. But in this spritzer, you will taste the sweet juice from the fruit juice which is available in natural form and then added with sparkling water to give that soda effect.

You can either use fresh orange juice from the orange fruit or store-bought orange juice Make sure it is 100% juice without any added sugars or preservatives and choose organic as much as possible.

This is a perfect summery drink to be given to kids when they want to quench their thirst as an alternative to Soda. It not only hydrates but also provides Vitamin C which is good for strong bones and increases immunity. So overall much nutritious than any other soda drinks. This can be made with any of your favorite fruit juices.

INGREDIENTS:
Orange Juice 
Orange slices for decoration
Ice cubes(optional)
Mint leaves (optional)

INSTRUCTION:
1. Cut 1 orange into thin slices and set aside for garnishing.

2. In a large pitcher, Add 2 parts orange juice and 1 part sparkling water. It is totally customizable as per your taste.


3. Serve it in a glass along with Ice cubes and orange slices.

4. Finally, garnish with an orange slice and mint leaves.

Eggless Brazilian Cheese Bread

Pao de Queijo (pronounced as pown -deh- kay-zho) aka Brazilian Cheese Bread is a small baked cheese bun, a popular snack and breakfast food that originated in the state Minas Gerais of Brazil. These are bread/buns usually made with tapioca flour, milk, oil, cheese, salt, and egg/egg substitute. Since I don't use eggs in my baking I have used vinegar instead. These are soft, chewy and so addictive. I love to make healthy bakes from all around the world. Inspired by this YouTube video by Something Dave and I gave it a try as it was an eggless version.These came out so well. These are super simple and easy to make with just five ingredients. A must try because they are gluten-free, contain no yeast, no baking powder, yet so soft and cheesy😋 I had never tried baking with tapioca flour...and found it so interesting to bake with. The dough is too sticky and you will need some extra flour to be dusted to make balls out of it. I have used plant-based pa...
