How to Make Nectar Sodas
- In a large saucepan, combine 4 cups of granulated sugar and 4 cups of water.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring until the sugar is completely dissolved.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Remove from heat and let the syrup cool completely. This is crucial for optimal flavor.
- Once cooled, stir in 1 cup of lemon juice, 1/2 cup of lime juice, 1/4 cup of orange juice and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
- To serve, place 2 scoops of vanilla ice cream into a tall glass filled with ice.
- Pour approximately 1/2 cup of the cooled nectar syrup over the ice cream.
- Top with chilled sparkling water, leaving a little space at the top.
- Stir gently and enjoy immediately! Refrigerate any leftover nectar syrup in an airtight container.
