Method
Prep
Chill and measure
Chill the club soda and sparkling water in the refrigerator beforehand. Measure out lemon and lime juice and simple syrup. Prepare ice, a lemon peel strip and a lime wheel for garnish.
Build the Drink
Fill a tall glass about three-quarters full with ice (about 1 cup).
Add the fresh lemon juice (1 tbsp), fresh lime juice (1 tbsp), and simple syrup (start with 1 tsp). If you prefer a sweeter, more classic Sprite-like flavor, add up to 2 tsp total, adjusting to taste.
Pour in 1/2 cup chilled club soda and 1/2 cup chilled sparkling water directly over the ice and citrus mixture. Gently stir twice with a bar spoon to combine—avoid vigorous stirring to keep carbonation.
Garnish the glass with the lime wheel or wedge on the rim.
Serve
Taste and adjust sweetness if needed: add an additional 1/2 to 1 tsp simple syrup if you want it sweeter, gently stir once, and serve immediately while cold and fizzy.
