Kids are drawn to bubbly drinks that have a sweet taste. Unfortunately, soda is loaded with calories, full of bad sugars and high in caffeine. Parents that try to cut soda out of a child's diet without replacing it with an equally satisfying beverage will be met with much resistance. Instead, parents can make their young children a tasty drink using club soda. The result is a sparkly drink that is both appealing to the eye and the stomach.

Step 1

Pour 2 liters of club soda, 12 ounces of frozen orange juice, 12 ounces of pineapple juice and 1 tablespoon of grenadine syrup in a large bowl. Stir to combine.

Step 2

Distribute the contents of the bowl into individual glasses.

Step 3

Drop two cherries into each glass.

Step 4

Cut a strawberry up the middle without going all the way through the strawberry. Slide the strawberry over the rim of the glass. Repeat with the rest of the glasses.

Step 5

Decorate each glass with a drink umbrella and serve immediately.

Tips

Substitute fruit punch for the orange juice.

Place an orange or lemon slice over the rim of the glasses instead of the strawberry.
