Fantastic and super refreshing soda.
ReplyDeleteAs a self-professed soda addict, I'm so glad to have this recipe! It looks so frefreshing.
ReplyDeleteLooks amazing!
ReplyDeleteDELICIOUS! My mom was the same way. We never had pop in the house.
ReplyDeleteI d love a glass of refreshing ginger mint cooler right now =)
ReplyDeleteRamona...this looks so refreshing and really perfect to drink all year round! I bought a meyer lemon tree earlier in the year and it's starting to produce lemons...so I may have to incorporate them into this lovely drink when they are ripe! : )
ReplyDeleteOh YUM! I keep a jar of ginger simple syrup in the fridge at all times, but have never thought to cook it with mint. DUH! Great Soda idea!!!
ReplyDeleteSo gorgeous! As a big fan of limes I love this soda idea! So refreshing!
ReplyDeleteI still love lemons and limes, so I had to stop by ;) I just have to make sure I have gloves on. This soda looks lovely. I am always looking for recipes to use my lemons and limes up.
ReplyDeleteI have used ginger syrup on my poached fruits many times and it really gives a lift to the flavors....this too sounds refreshing :)
ReplyDeleteThis looks so refreshing!!
ReplyDeleteA perfect drink that beats the shops :D

This is a great idea. Way better than plain old lemon water.
ReplyDeleteRamona...I think I started to leave you a comment late last night and then fell asleep in the middle of writing it. (Never do anything on the computer after you have taken a sleeping pill!) When I woke up this morning and looked at my computer, I saw that my computer had reset with updates so I couldn't track back what I had actually written here. I have been so afraid that I said something stupid or incomprehensible on this post. If I indeed did leave a comment and you had to remove it, I am sooooo sorry. If, on the other hand, I merely started to make a comment and never finished it, then wahoo! I didn't make a fool of myself.
ReplyDeleteWhat I started to say last night/early this morning is that this drink sounds so delicious. I love the simple syrup that you used with the ginger and mint. This all sounds like the perfect cooler with good things to help with relaxation. Maybe if I drank some of this before bed, then I wouldn't be tempted to take a sleeping pill and maybe say something silly on someone's blog. :)
This homemade soda is a perfect substitute for sugary store-bought drinks. The best part: It is so easy to make!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing this post!!!
