What I made this weekend: Lemon soda


Can you tell I just bought lemons? Fresh lemon soda, even with the added sugar, is probably not as bad for you as a canned version, and infinite times more tasty.



I made simple syrup (all I did was dissolve equal parts sugar and water, heated up a bit on the stove; my version is made with raw sugar which is why it is so dark), just so I would not have to wait for the sugar to dissolve in cold soda (I'm so impatient).

I used half a lemon, about a tablespoon of the cooled syrup, and sparkling water. Served over ice. Adding a lemon wedge would not be amiss.
