My mother never really bought sodas for us when we were kids. Since I try to do the same with my kids, I wanted to make a homemade "healthier" version of lemon lime soda for them.
It was so easy (the hardest part was squeezing out all the juice). My homemade lemon lime soda turned out fantastic and my family loved. I know it's still spring, but summer will be here before we know it. I will definitely be serving a lot of this refreshing drink on those long hot days.
Ingredients:
1/4 cup lime juice
1/4 cup lemon juice
1-2 liters club soda (carbonated water)
lemon and lime slices to garnish
Add choice of sweeteners to taste
- Simple Syrup -1 cup sugar dissolved in 1 cup of water heated on the stove. (see recipe below for ginger-mint simple syrup)
- Agave or Splenda to taste
Ginger-Mint Simple Syrup:
To make 1 batch:
Boil
1 cup sugar, 1 cup water and 1 inch of sliced ginger. Bring to a boil
for 2-3. Turn stove off and add 4-5 mint leaves. Allow to steep and
cool. Strain ginger and mint before using. Copyright: All recipes, content, and images (unless otherwise stated) are the sole property of Curry and Comfort. Please do not use without prior written consent. Unauthorized reproduction is strictly prohibited.
A good foundation starts with a good simple syrup and you are rocking t! This is a great alternative to soda for kids and adults too.

Love making fresh fruit sodas! Yours sounds perfectly refreshing!
ReplyDeleteI think I will try this with lemongrass simple syrup since I have some in the refrigerator. It's nice to drink something other than water. Thank you for the recipe.
