    Orange Creamsicle Flavored Sparkling Water + a Giveaway!

    Jar and bottles for this post were kindly provided by Infinity Jars. All opinions are my own.


    In addition to publishing a new recipe today, I'm also doing a giveaway. This is my first giveaway so I'm really excited about it!

    Entry rules are towards the end of this post. The winner will receive an Infinity Jars gift card to purchase $30 worth of beautiful ultraviolet glass jars and bottles from their website.

    Infinity Jars appear black but when you hold them up to the light, they are actually a blue/purple color. Although they are beautiful, this isn't for aesthetic purposes. It's actually a feature that helps extend the life of whatever you store in them. This makes them perfect for more "delicate" items like essential oils, teas, spices, olive oil, nuts, vitamins/fish oil, etc.

    You know how people talk about how light can degrade nutrients in things like olive oil or milk? That's what these glass jars seek to prevent. In addition to being airtight, they also filter out visible light that can degrade food. However, not all light gets filtered out. These jars actually allow infrared and UV-A light to pass through the glass. This is similar to the deep violet glass invented in Egypt thousands of years ago with the purpose of preserving oils and herbs in tombs.

    You can read more about the science here as well as some food preservation experiments using Infinity Jars, clear glass jars, and amber jars.

    Infinity Jars was nice enough to send me a few of their products to try out. If you follow me on Instagram, you may have already seen me use the small, 5 ml jar for my homemade lip balm. These really would be a lot of fun for people who make a lot of their own personal care products.

    I've also been  using their square glass bottle with the oil spout for my olive oil. It comes with a completely airtight lid too but it looks like the oil spout is designed to let as little air in as possible. I no longer feel like I have to store my oil in the dark pantry. It now stays out on my counter which is perfect since my kitchen is decorated in black, red, and white.

    For the recipe today, I used the 500 ml long neck bottle. Between the longer neck and the airtight lid, it held the carbonation really well which is perfect because I had to let the flavors infuse and chill overnight.

    The drink is flavored with orange and vanilla, just like an orange creamsicle. It's very light and refreshing like a flavored water as opposed to a soda. I didn't feel the need to sweeten mine because the orange and vanilla made it seem sweet but honey would be an easy sweetener to stir in. Alternatively, you could use maple or agave for a vegan option.

    If you haven't noticed by now, I'm a pretty big fan of flavoring my sparkling water. If orange creamsicle isn't your thing, I also have recipes for sparkling cherry limeade and pineapple mint sparklers. Although sometimes all you need is a squeeze of lemon in your sparkling water.

      I want all of their jars! But if I had to pick just one then I would probably choose the square bottle with oil spout for my olive oil so I can keep it out on the counter, how convenient that would be! Thank you for introducing me to Infinity Jars and for the yummy recipe. Can't wait to try both!

    About Meagan

    About Meagan

    I started out with a passion for creating unique recipes and decorating cakes. In June of 2012, I discovered I was not only severely gluten intolerant but also, many of the foods I was eating I simply couldn't include in my diet anymore. Fortunately, my love for trying new recipes, ingredients, and cooking methods made re-learning how to cook seem more like a fun challenge than an unfortunate circumstance. I'm so happy to say that my dietary restrictions haven't stopped me from doing what I love. I hope you enjoy these recipes as much as I do.

Also wrote a recap on everything that’s been going on for the past year since I would normally write about it in my blog posts but haven’t written anything! I don’t know when I’ll be back on there. I’ve only had time for site maintenance and I really miss blogging but I’ll be back on once things slow down. The link to the new post is in my profile!

    I almost didn’t make this into a casserole becau I almost didn’t make this into a casserole because the sauce and pasta combined made a delicious side dish on their own! @beldolcefood #sponsored my most recent blog post and provided me with their new gluten free fusilli and penne to try out. I used the fusilli in this recipe and the sauce is a creamy, cheesy enchilada sauce made from just 3 ingredients.
.
I ended up adding taco meat, fire roasted tomatoes, corn, black beans, and dairy free cheese to make a taco noodle casserole. Then we ate it all and I made it again! This is one of those recipes that will be going in our regular meal rotation.
.
This is a pretty versatile recipe. It can be made vegan just by leaving out the meat and it’s just as good. And as I said earlier, the pasta with just the sauce makes a really good side dish. You can also top it with whatever you like such as cilantro, jalapeños, sour cream, scallions, or salsa.

    I’ll just say it - I’m one of those bloggers t I’ll just say it - I’m one of those bloggers that makes cakes for their blogs “birthdays”. Or uses the blog birthdays as an excuse to make yet another cake recipe....yeah, that’s probably more accurate.
.
Definitely felt like I needed a good excuse for this one because it’s my fifth variation of gooey butter cake! However, my site is seven years old so maybe I should have had seven gooey butter cakes ready to go? Guess I’d better get caught up before year eight 😉
.
Anyways, I really enjoyed this carrot cake variation of gooey butter cake. The cake layer/crust swaps out the yellow cake mix with spice cake mix and I added in some shredded carrots and raisins. I kept the “gooey” top layer the same except that I topped it with a sprinkle of cinnamon and additional raisins before baking.

    Here are a few last minute treat ideas! The carame Here are a few last minute treat ideas! The caramel stuffed crispy rice treats recipe is written below. The other recipes (gooey butter cookies, salted caramel turtles, and pumpkin snickerdoodles) can be found at the link in my bio!
.
CARAMEL STUFFED CRISPY RICE TREATS
.
INGREDIENTS
.
• ¼ C dairy free butter, divided
• 4 C mini marshmallows (regular and vegan both work), divided
• 6 C gluten free rice cereal *see notes*
• 1 tsp vanilla extract, divided
• 10-11 oz dairy free chewy caramels
• 11.25 oz can sweetened condensed coconut milk
.
DIRECTIONS
.
1. Melt 2 tablespoons of the dairy free butter in a medium sauce pan over medium-low heat. Add 2 cups of marshmallows and stir until they are melted with no lumps.
2. Remove from heat and stir in ½ tsp of vanilla then gently fold in 3 cups of cereal until it is well-combined with the marshmallows.
3. Using wet hands, press this mixture evenly into the bottom of a 7x11 inch casserole dish and set aside.
4. Unwrap the caramels and add them along with the sweetened condensed coconut milk to a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Stir often to avoid burning. Once this has turned to a completely smooth sauce, pour over the cereal layer.
5. Make your top cereal layer by repeating steps 1 and 2. Distribute this evenly over the caramel layer and pat down with wet hands.
6. Once the treats have cooled down, they will firm up and hold their shape when cut. Cut into squares and serve.
.
NOTES
.
• Potential allergens contained in this recipe may vary due to brands of ingredients used, product reformulations, etc. Please verify that all your ingredients are safe for you to consume and always be mindful of allergen cross contamination while cooking.
• Double check that the cereal you use is gluten free. At least one brand carries 2 different versions of rice cereal and only one is GF.
• Don't make both cereal layers in one large batch then divide it up. The top layer will cool and firm up before you can layer it on which will make the caramel seep out when you press it down.
