Pour the orange-lime mixture into the glasses, dividing it equally between the two.
Top each glass with soda water to give the drink a refreshing fizz.
Stir gently to combine.
Garnish with an orange slice and a lime wedge on the rim of each glass. Optionally, you can add a mint sprig for extra freshness.
