Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 whole Fresh lemons
- 60 grams Granulated sugar
- 120 milliliters Water
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 60 milliliters Heavy cream
- 480 milliliters Club soda
- 1 cup Ice cubes
- 1 whole Lemon slices (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Juice the two fresh lemons to yield approximately 60 milliliters of lemon juice and set aside.
In a small saucepan, combine the granulated sugar and water. Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar dissolves completely to make a simple syrup. Remove from heat and let cool for a few minutes.
Once the simple syrup has cooled, stir in the fresh lemon juice and vanilla extract. Mix well to combine, creating the lemon-vanilla syrup.
Fill two tall glasses halfway with ice cubes.
Divide the lemon-vanilla syrup evenly between the two glasses.
Pour 240 milliliters of club soda into each glass and stir gently to combine.
Slowly drizzle 30 milliliters of heavy cream into each glass. Give it a light stir to create a creamy swirl effect.
Garnish each glass with a lemon slice, if desired, and serve immediately for a fizzy, creamy treat.
