Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Simple Syrup

    In a small saucepan, combine equal parts sugar and water. Heat over medium heat until the sugar dissolves completely. Allow to cool before using.

    Prepare the Flavor Purees

    If using fresh fruits, puree them in a blender until smooth. Strain to remove seeds or pulp if desired. If using pre-made syrups, set them aside for mixing.

Mixing the Soda

  1. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    In a large glass or pitcher, combine the carbonated water, simple syrup, and fresh lime juice. Stir gently to mix.

  2. 4

    Add Flavor

    Choose your desired flavor (mango, pineapple, strawberry, or hibiscus) and add the corresponding puree or syrup to the mixture. Stir gently to combine.

  3. 5

    Serve

    Fill a glass with ice cubes and pour the prepared soda over the ice. Garnish with a lime wedge or fresh fruit slices if desired.
