Method

Sparkling Base

1

Prepare glass

Chill a tall or Collins glass in the freezer for 5–10 minutes or fill it with ice to cool while you prepare the other components.

2

Add the ice cubes to the chilled glass leaving room for liquid (about 6 cubes).

3

Pour 1 cup of cold sparkling water gently into the glass over the ice to preserve carbonation.

Citrus & Flavor

4

In a small pitcher or measuring cup, combine 0.5 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, 0.5 tablespoon fresh lime juice, and 1 teaspoon simple syrup. Stir gently until the syrup dissolves.

5

If using orange blossom water, add 1 teaspoon to the citrus-syrup mixture and stir once—orange blossom is potent, so only a small amount is needed.

6

Pour the citrus and flavor mixture slowly into the sparkling water in the glass. Stir gently once or twice with a bar spoon to integrate without flattening the bubbles.

Garnish

7

Express oils from the lemon wheel over the drink by holding the wheel with the peel facing down and giving it a quick squeeze; rub the peel around the glass rim if desired.

8

Drop the lemon wheel into the glass and add the fresh mint sprig. Gently clap the mint between your palms once before garnishing to release its aroma.

9

Serve immediately while sparkling and cold.
