A Party Welcome Drink Idea – Sprite Fanta Drink Recipe

November 24, 2015 34 Comments

party welcome drink recipe idea

This is a good welcome drink idea for a small party in your home. There’s quite a story behind this drink and although I don’t usually share much stories with the recipes, this one can’t come without out so here goes. My dad’s sister, athamma, is quite a cook but more than that, she is a very eager hostess. Whenever we go back home on vacation, dinner at her place is a done thing and all our favourites line up on the table from one end to the other.

She recently hosted my newly married niece and her family and my mom was very taken by the “welcome drink”. She immediately got the recipe, got all the ingredients and was on the phone with me the next day insisting she will make it and send me pics for the blog. I said I wanted to be there as she made it and anyway, I was going home on vacation in another month or so. So she made this while I stood around taking a zillion pictures.

None of us know the name of this and my aunt got it from someone on her husband’s side of the family so this drink shall just be called a party welcome drink idea.

The ingredients and combinations will sound a bit bizzarre but it was delicious!

A Party Welcome Drink Idea (Recipe)
Serves 6-8 people

Ingredients:
3 tbsp sweetened condensed milk
2 tbsp orange tang (experiment with flavours here)
1 litre chilled sprite or club soda
1-2tbsp sugar (increase if using club soda)
1 apple peeled and finely chopped
A few sprigs of fresh mint, finely chopped

How Its Made:

1. Add the condensed milk and tang to a bowl and whisk until well combined. (My mom uses what we call the “Horlicks beater” back home. Many years back, the UK version of Horlicks that was sold in duty paid shops came with these and my dad gifted one to his mom. She later gave it to my mom and she uses it to beat egg whites stiff, make cappuccino, and of course to make Horlicks).

2. Add the powdered sugar and give it another whisk. Then add sprite making sure you pour through the sides gently. The mixture will foam up quite a bit.

3. Transfer to glasses, top off with some chopped apples and mint, and serve cold with ice cubes if you like.

    It's simple. Now the house is hot and a lot of cucumbers. What I do when I'm hungry. But the hot … I take the cucumbers, salt and 100 ml of yogurt. I put everything into a blender and make a thick cucumber drink. Try it, it is tasty and refreshing

    Love the color of your welcome drink..It looked more like a pineapple drink to me. But then Tang and milkmaid and a drink…sounds wonderful. Must give a try.

    As usual I looked at the pics first and then read the post. I was expecting something with tang and soda. The condensed milk was really a surprising element. Good one babe..

    This post reminds of my mom, who usually keeps telling me about her kitchen experiments. The drink looks like a concoction of quite unusual ingredients but I guess it's worth a try.

    Recently saw in this in a TV cookery show. The end result was a slightly curdled looking liquid. I was skeptic as the tang will make the milk to curdle.

    Many many Hyderabad summer afternoons when all I had at home was Tang and club soda, R and I used to make a version of this and topped it off with a pinch of Kala Namak on it for the 'zing'. You brought back such memories 🙂

    It tastes lovely with Mango and Lemon tang too!

    Priyanka, i am not sure about Roohafza. We need to make sure it won't react adversely with the condensed milk. Try though na? 🙂

    Yep, the drink does look a tad curdled but it tastes delicious. Serve immediately, that's important.
