What’s fizzier<\/a>: Limeade or Orangeade? Try this fun kitchen science experiment<\/a> to find out. It’s chemistry you can sip!<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

\"Orangeade<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

We had so much fun making old-fashioned lemonade<\/a> last week, that we ran out of lemons! But it got us thinking – can you use a similar acid-base reaction to make fizzy drinks with other citrus fruits? We had some limes and oranges in our fruit bowl, so we decided to find out!<\/p>\n

We happened to do this in our backyard, as it was a warm autumn day and we’re trying to make the most of the sunshine. But you can totally do this in your kitchen too – actually, it would make a fun rainy day activity<\/a> for those days when you’re stuck indoors…

Comparing the fizziness of homemade drinks is a fun kitchen science experiment that you could try with preschoolers<\/a>, kindergarteners<\/a> and primary school aged<\/a> kids. My daughter Bumble Bee was 7.5 years old when we gave this a go.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
