Merry and (very) bright.
Seven festive glasses, each one sachet and some fizz. No syrups, no sugar in the base, no faff. Plus how to make a jug for the whole table.
Made and tasted by the Spruce team, November 2026.
The short version.
Stir a Spruce sachet into a splash of still water, pour over ice, top up with chilled sparkling water and add something festive: frozen berries, rosemary, a citrus wheel or pomegranate seeds. Every sachet is sugar free and sweetened with stevia, so the only sugar is whatever fruit you garnish with.
Pick a sachet.
Each serves one, in a 300ml glass. Filter by the sachet you’ve got in the cupboard.
The one that looks like Christmas in a glass.

How many sachets and how much fizz for your crowd.
01How many glasses?
A standard jug holds about 1.5 litres, which is five glasses.
02Your shopping list
Dissolve the sachets in about 100ml of still water per jug, add fruit and ice, then top up with sparkling water just before you pour. Mix two sachets for a crowd-pleaser: Raspberry & Elderflower with Lime & Mint works well.
What you’ll need.
Before you pour.
The things people ask before Christmas Day.
The base is. Every Spruce sachet is sugar free and sweetened with stevia, and sparkling water has no sugar. Fresh fruit garnishes such as raspberries, cherries or pomegranate seeds add a little natural sugar.
Use one sachet for every 300ml glass. Stir the sachets into a little still water in the jug until dissolved, add your fruit and ice, then top up with chilled sparkling water just before guests arrive so it stays fizzy.
Yes. Dissolve the sachets in a little still water and keep the base in the fridge for up to a day. Add the sparkling water, ice and garnish when you serve.
Yes. Carbonate plain water first, then stir in the sachet. Adding powder before carbonating makes it foam.
Spruce sachets are made for adults, so for little ones stick to sparkling water with fruit.
Absolutely. Every recipe works with still water if fizz isn’t your thing; you just lose the sparkle.
