Soft Drinks

1. 1

   Make lemon syrup

   In a saucepan, combine water, lemon juice, and sugar. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat, stirring until the sugar fully dissolves. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature to create a lemon syrup.

2. 2

   Chill and carbonate

   Chill the lemon syrup in the refrigerator. Just before serving, pour 1 part lemon syrup into a glass and top with 3 parts sparkling water. Stir gently to combine to preserve fizz.

3. 3

   Serve

   Fill glasses with ice cubes. Pour the lemon-syrup soda over ice and garnish with lemon slices if desired.
