Notes
Fresca
You can swap out the Fresca with lemon-lime soda like 7up or sour mix. Or you can make a simple syrup and add fresh lemon juice, pineapple juice, orange juice, or fresh lime juice. Top with equal parts of club soda water, stir and enjoy.Homemade Green Sprinkles
Make your own lucky shamrock sprinkles by mixing various ones you have at home. Look for any shade of green light or dark. Use gold sparkling sugars, stars, or gold dragees. White looks great too and yellow will work just fine. You can order some shamrock-shaped sprinkles online and mix those in as well. Use different shapes, sizes, nonpareils, hundreds-and-thousands, jimmies, sanding sugars, crystal sugars, pearl sugar, and dragees. Store them in a small mason jar.Nutrition
