The first thought on your mind when you hear “Fresh Lemon and Rosemary Soda” might be EWWWW Really? However, I can assure you, this is truly a winner! The rosemary is a soft undertone to the tart lemon flavor and the added honey balances everything out.
If you have never tried to make soda from scratch then you are really going to enjoy this post!
Making soda from scratch requires you to first make a thick sugary syrup. That syrup is then mixed with sparkling soda water to give you the final product. In this case, you will use 2 tablespoons of syrup to every cup of soda water. After cooking down you will get roughly enough syrup for a 2 liter of soda.
