Saft
Pure juice from berries, fruit, or rhubarb boiled with water and sugar and then mixed with water at the time of serving becomes Swedish saft. Swedish children often enjoy saft at Birthday parties and other special occasions.
Make your own beverages so you know what is in it, including how much cane sugar. Real berries and fruits, no chemicals that mimic berry or fruit flavors.
