I just made a gallon of soda mix. Here is my recipe:
3.5 cups of sugar (Caramelized)
1 vanilla pod (seeds extracted and tossed in as well)
1/3 cup of maple syrup
Juice of 1.5 lemons
and the rind of 1 lemon
Its kinda amazing tasting. I am very happy with it so I thought I would share.
Since it was my first soda I tried to carbonate it with yeast. While that worked out, I still mixed it with soda water because it was too sweet. Next time I might cut down the sugar by 1/3. Some of the bottles I let ferment for a 36 hours before I chilled them took on a nice flavor from the trace alcohol.
Cheers!
