Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups ice
- 1 cup club soda
- 6–8 tablespoons fruit syrup (such as raspberry, strawberry, or vanilla)
- 4 tablespoons heavy cream
- 4 tablespoons whipped cream
- Prepare the Glass: Fill a tall glass with 1 1/2 cups of ice to chill the drink and keep it refreshing.
- Add Fruit Syrup: Pour 6 to 8 tablespoons of your chosen fruit syrup over the ice, adjusting the amount to suit your preferred sweetness and flavor intensity.
- Pour Club Soda: Slowly add 1 cup of chilled club soda to the glass, allowing the soda to mix gently with the syrup without losing too much carbonation.
- Add Heavy Cream: Drizzle 4 tablespoons of heavy cream over the soda mixture to create a creamy texture and enhance the richness of the soda.
- Mix the Drink: Gently stir the contents to combine the syrup, soda, and cream evenly while maintaining some of the carbonation.
- Top with Whipped Cream: Finish by topping the soda with 4 tablespoons of whipped cream, adding a luscious, airy finish to the beverage.
- Serve Immediately: Serve the Italian Cream Soda immediately to enjoy the fizzy and creamy contrasts at their best.
Notes
- You can experiment with different flavored syrups like vanilla, cherry, or caramel for varied tastes.
- Use cold ingredients to keep the soda fizzy and refreshing for longer.
- For a lighter version, substitute heavy cream with half-and-half or milk, but the creaminess might be reduced.
- To make it vegan friendly, use coconut cream and dairy-free whipped topping.
- Stir gently to avoid losing too much carbonation from the soda.
