Recipe FAQs
- → Can I make this ahead of time?
For the best carbonation and flavor, it's recommended to assemble this spritzer just before serving. However, you can mix the guava and lime juice in advance and store it refrigerated, then add sparkling water right before serving.
- → What type of guava juice works best?
Use 100% pure guava juice without added sugar for the most authentic tropical flavor. Canned or bottled guava nectar also works well and provides a slightly sweeter, more concentrated taste.
- → Can I substitute the sparkling water?
Yes! Club soda, tonic water, or lemon-lime soda all make excellent substitutions. Each will bring a slightly different flavor profile—club soda is neutral, tonic adds bitterness, and lemon-lime soda brings extra sweetness.
- → How do I make it less sweet?
Reduce the guava juice to ¾ cup and increase sparkling water to 1 ¼ cups. You can also add more fresh lime juice to cut through the natural sweetness with bright acidity.
- → What other garnishes work well?
Fresh mint leaves, lime wedges, or even pineapple skewers make beautiful garnishes. For a festive touch, rim the glass with sugar or Tajín seasoning before adding ice and liquid.
