Tips & Suggestions

Preparation

Preparation Tip 1

Dissolve the syrup or sugar completely prior to adding the soda, since undissolved sugar will settle and cause unevenness in sweetness, particularly as there is no alcohol to assist in carrying flavours.

Preparation

Preparation Tip 2

Utilise cold soda water and not room temperature, since when chilled, it mixes better and lasts longer in terms of carbonation.
