Need help making a drink 

Hey friends, I want to try to make a "custom" sweet beverage for a friend. I basically want it to be a carbonated drink with pink coloring, but with a sweet flavor that would throw off expectations of a drink that would be pink, though I don’t have an idea of what exactly yet.

Anybody would have any idea about how I’d go making that? I thought about just mixing seltzer water, pink food coloring and artificial flavoring but idk if it would be that easy

re: Need help making a drink 

@Siph I'd consider using beet juice for the food coloring, and maybe for the flavor in general since that'd be pretty surprising in a soda.

Natural flavor extracts tend to be transparent or otherwise not very colorful, and citric acid (which you'll want to add for flavor) won't change the color either.
