Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1-2 ounces flavored Torani syrup (any flavor of your choice)
- Crushed ice (enough to fill the glass halfway)
- 1 ounce half-and-half or whipping cream
- 8 ounces club soda
- Whipped cream (optional, for topping)
- Maraschino cherries (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Add Syrup: Pump 1-2 ounces of your chosen flavored Torani syrup into a 16-ounce glass to provide the sweet, distinctive flavor base for the Italian soda.
- Add Ice: Fill the glass halfway with crushed ice to chill and dilute the drink slightly, balancing the syrup’s sweetness.
- Add Cream: Pour 1 ounce of half-and-half or whipping cream over the ice and syrup, adding a rich, creamy element to the bubbly soda.
- Add Club Soda: Slowly pour 8 ounces of club soda into the glass to add the fizzy, refreshing sparkle that defines an Italian soda.
- Mix: Stir the ingredients gently to combine the syrup, cream, and soda without losing carbonation.
- Garnish and Serve: Top with whipped cream and a maraschino cherry if desired to enhance presentation and add a final touch of indulgence. Serve immediately.
Notes
- You can adjust the amount of syrup based on desired sweetness.
- Use flavored cream or dairy-free alternatives to customize taste and dietary needs.
- Serve immediately for the best carbonation and flavor experience.
- Optional toppings enhance visual appeal and taste but can be omitted for a lighter drink.
