In a bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, paprika, and pepper. Whisk until well mixed.

Add Sparkling Water
Gradually add the cold sparkling water to the dry mixture, whisking until you achieve a smooth batter. The batter should be thick enough to coat the onion rings.
Fry the Onion Rings

Heat the Oil
In a deep frying pan or pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

Coat the Onion Rings
Dip each onion ring into the batter, ensuring it is fully coated.

Fry the Onion Rings
Carefully place the coated onion rings into the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.

Drain and Serve
