Italian cream sodas have not been on my mind in the least until I saw this recipe for Blueberry Italian Cream Sodas on Pinterest a few weeks ago. Now I can’t seem to get them off my mind!

It’s no wonder! Who wouldn’t want one of Patricia’s gorgeous soda creations? While the recipe contains sugar, which my followers don’t eat, this girl has some things right!

I love that Patricia uses real fruit and makes the syrup for the sodas from scratch. So often, Italian cream sodas are made with syrups that contain loads of food coloring, artificial flavors, high fructose corn syrups and other nasties. 

One thing I do differently than Patricia is that I don’t strain out the berries at the end. Instead, I put them in the blender with water and liquify them before making the syrup. I do this so that we don’t lose out on any of the fiber and antioxidants in the berries. Of course, with my method, there will be a few tiny bits of strawberry and some strawberry seeds left. I actually like tiny pieces of strawberries  in the soda, but if you prefer, you could strain them out at the end.

I use cream for these sodas, because many of my followers prefer to switch carb macros for fat macros. If you prefer, you could use half and half, or half cream and half almond milk. This will still give a creamy, decadent texture to the sodas, but not add as much fat. 

This Low-Carb Strawberry Italian Cream Soda Recipe is perfect for a special treat. It’s a great way to get big strawberry flavor with just a few strawberries. Enjoy!
