Method
Soda Base
Chill and measure
Chill a serving glass (or pitcher) in the refrigerator for 5–10 minutes if desired. Measure 3 cups of 7 Up (or another lemon-lime soda) and 1 cup of club soda or sparkling water.
Add 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice and 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice to brighten the flavor. Taste and proceed to sweeten only if needed.
Sweetener (optional)
If you prefer a slightly sweeter or rounder soda, add up to 1 teaspoon simple syrup and stir gently to incorporate. Do not add more than necessary to avoid flattening the soda.
Garnish & Ice
Fill a tall serving glass with about 1 cup of ice cubes. Pour the soda mixture over the ice, leaving a little headspace to preserve bubbles.
Garnish with 1–2 lemon slices and 1–2 lime slices on the rim or floated in the glass. Clap 4 mint leaves between your palms once to release aroma and tuck them into the drink.
Serve immediately with a straw or stirring spoon so the drink remains fizzy. If preparing for a group, assemble just before serving to keep carbonation.
