Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Simple Syrup

    In a small saucepan, combine equal parts sugar and water (1:1 ratio). Heat over medium heat, stirring until the sugar is fully dissolved. Allow to cool before using.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Flavor Syrups

    Choose your desired flavor syrups (like cherry, cola, vanilla, etc.). You can either buy pre-made syrups or make your own by infusing flavors into the simple syrup.

Assembling the Soda Fountain

  1. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    In a large glass or soda fountain dispenser, fill with 1 cup of simple syrup and 4 cups of carbonated water. Stir gently to combine.

  2. 4

    Add Flavor

    Add 1/4 cup of your chosen flavor syrup to the mixture for each serving. Adjust according to taste.

  3. 5

    Add Ice

    Fill the glass or dispenser with ice, about 1-1.5 cups per serving, to chill the soda.

  4. 6

    Garnish

    Top with lemon wedges, cherries, whipped cream, and mint leaves as desired.
