What Is Yakult?
The Yakult packaging is also iconic. Fans will instantly recognize the mini bottles with the red foil lids. It used to be available mainly at Asian grocery stores, but you can now find Yakult in many supermarkets near the yogurt.

Ingredients To Make an Orange Yakult Spritz
For this recipe, you'll need fresh-squeezed orange juice, Yakult, plain sparkling water and lots of ice. To make one drink, you'll need the juice of one orange, so you might also want to pick up a second orange to slice up for garnish. You can also use store-bought oj, but with a drink this simple, and because it's citrus season, it really is worth squeezing your own.

I expected something closer to juice, but the Yakult gives this drink a silky, rich feeling, which makes it feel a little bit special. The sparkling water keeps it from being too thick, so it stays easy to sip. There’s no syrupy finish, so it feels like something you could drink in the morning, serve at brunch or sip on in the afternoon without feeling weighed down.

Tips for Making This Drink
Fresh orange juice makes a noticeable difference, so if you can squeeze your own, it’s worth the extra minute. For a sweeter version, add a splash of honey or simple syrup, though the natural sweetness of the juice is usually enough.

And, like most spritzes, it's best to serve this drink immediately. The bubbles fade quickly, and the texture is best when freshly mixed.
