Ingredients
  

For the Fruit Syrup
  • 1 cup warm water or room temperature water
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar or honey/agave syrup
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh chopped fruit strawberries, raspberries, or fruit of choice
For the Cream Soda
  • 1/2 cup cream (Half and Half) or milk/non-dairy alternative
  • 2 cups club soda or carbonated water any carbonated beverage

Equipment

  • Medium saucepan
  • fine mesh strainer
  • tall glasses

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup of warm water with ¾ cup of granulated sugar. Heat over medium heat, stirring continuously until the sugar dissolves completely, about 2-3 minutes. Add 1½ cups of chopped fresh fruit and bring to a gentle boil, then reduce to a simmer for 20 minutes.
  2. Remove the saucepan from heat and let the mixture cool for a few minutes. Use a fine mesh strainer to pour the fruit mixture into a bowl or jar, catching any solids. Discard the residue and let the syrup cool completely.
  3. Grab a tall glass and fill it with ice cubes. Pour 4 tablespoons of cooled fruit syrup over the ice. Gradually add club soda or carbonated water until the glass is about three-quarters full.
  4. Top with a splash of cream or half and half and give it a gentle stir to mix the layers.
  5. Serve immediately, garnished with a slice of the same fruit or a sprig of mint.
