Notes

If you’re looking for a single serving of this drink the measurements are: 8 ounces sparkling water, 1 ounce fresh lime juice and 1 1/2 ounces vanilla simple syrup. Also, after 24 hours this drink looses its fizzy nature and is a bit flat. This doesn’t bother me much (or my kids) because the flavor is still delicious.
