Purple Fizz Cocktail Light, Fruity & Refreshingly Effervescent

Thanks for being here, friend! If you’re craving a cocktail that’s bubbly, beautiful, and bursting with fruity goodness, this Purple Fizz Cocktail is your new go-to. It’s light, flavorful, and ridiculously easy to whip up—perfect for casual hangouts, last-minute happy hours, or that spontaneous backyard sunset moment.

This drink came together on a lazy Saturday when I wanted something simple but a little fun, and let me tell you—it totally delivered. The pear vodka gives it a smooth, delicate base, the schnapps adds a punch of berry flavor, and the soda combo brings a refreshing sparkle. Bonus: it’s stunning in the glass!

The Purple Fizz Cocktail is a vibrant, fruity mixed drink made with pear vodka, grape or blueberry schnapps, and a fizzy blend of soda water and lemon-lime soda. Served over ice in a rocks glass, it’s smooth, lightly sweet, and super refreshing—great for warm weather, brunches, or easy-breezy sipping.

Ingredients

• 1 part Pear Vodka
• 1 part Grape or Blueberry Schnapps
• 1 part Soda Water
• 1 part Lemon-Lime Soda
• Ice Cubes
• Optional Garnish: Blueberries, mint sprig, or a lemon wheel

Instructions

1. Prepare the Glass

Fill a rocks glass with fresh ice to the top.

2. Add the Liquors

Pour in equal parts:

3. Add the Fizz

• Add 1 part soda water for a crisp, clean sparkle.

Notes

• Adjust the sweetness by reducing the lemon-lime soda and increasing soda water.

Absolutely! Add more lemon-lime soda for sweetness or increase the pear vodka for a stronger punch.

What’s the best schnapps to use?
Either grape schnapps for a candy-like flavor or blueberry schnapps for a more tart, fruity edge. Both work beautifully.

Can I make a large batch for a party?
Yes! Multiply each ingredient by 6–8 and serve in a punch bowl or pitcher. Add the soda just before serving and stir gently.

What if I can’t find pear vodka?
Try apple vodka, cucumber vodka, or plain vodka + a splash of pear juice as an easy substitute.
