Easy Jam Seltzer Drink (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ Drink Base

01 - 1-2 tablespoons jam (any flavor you enjoy)
02 - 8 ounce can seltzer water (any flavor)
03 - 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

→ Optional Garnishes

04 - Fresh fruit slices that complement your jam flavor
05 - Fresh herbs (mint, basil, or rosemary work well)
06 - Ice cubes

# Instructions:

01 - Add 1-2 tablespoons of your favorite jam into the bottom of a glass. The amount depends on how sweet you want your drink.
02 - Squeeze 2 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice into the glass with the jam. The acidity balances the sweetness perfectly.
03 - Stir the jam and lemon juice together until they're well combined. The jam should start to dissolve a bit.
04 - Slowly pour the seltzer water over the jam mixture. The bubbles will help mix everything together.
05 - Add ice cubes and your chosen fruit or herb garnish. Give it a gentle stir and enjoy your refreshing drink!

# Notes:

01 - Try different jam flavors like strawberry, raspberry, peach, or blackberry for variety.
02 - Match your garnishes to your jam flavor - strawberry jam pairs well with fresh strawberries and mint.
03 - For a smoother drink, you can strain the mixture if your jam has fruit chunks.
