Notes
- If you don’t want club soda, use sparkling mineral water, tonic water, or seltzer. Ginger ale is another choice, but it might alter the taste of the mocktail.
- Make the simple syrup at home by mixing equal cups of water and sugar on the stovetop until it dissolves. Cool before combining with the rest of the ingredients. For an extra boost of flavor, add rosemary sprigs into the syrup to make rosemary syrup.
- Double or triple this recipe to serve more people. Add the club soda once ready to serve, but not beforehand.
