Note

Storage: The concentrate can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or frozen for longer storage. Thaw in the refrigerator before use.

Serving Tip: Always add the carbonated 7-Up immediately before serving to maintain fizziness. If added earlier, the drink will go flat.

Variation: For a non-carbonated version, substitute 7-Up with additional lemon-lime flavored water or simple syrup. You can also adjust the sweetness by reducing the sugar amount.

Ingredient Note: Ensure you use unsweetened pineapple and orange juices if you want to control the total sugar content precisely, as some brands are sweetened.
