Combine the sugar with 3/4 cup water in a small saucepan and bring to a simmer; stir until the sugar dissolves. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla and lemon juice. Refrigerate until cold.

Made a few small adjustments...<div><br /></div><div>Swapped vanilla for butter vanilla extract and caramel extract... (be generous)</div><div><br /></div><div>Swapped seltzer water for cold water, added 3 grams of baking soda to set off the lemon juice (or citric acid) and make it fizzy...</div><div><br /></div><div>Bottled in clean Ramune bottles...  hint: add baking soda to the bottle last. Then seal and flip!</div><div><br /></div><div>Butterbeer Ramune!</div>

Delicious! I never knew this could be so simple...what a treat! 

Lime Berry Soda

blackberries

raspberries

lime water

Lime wedge and fresh mint sprig,

Lime Berry Soda as seen on Valerie's Home Cooking, Season 13.

For the simple syrup: Add the berries, sugar and 1/2 cup water to a small saucepan. Heat over medium heat until the berries have released their juices and the sugar is dissolved, about 5 minutes. Use a fine mesh strainer to strain the liquid into a jar. Cool to room temperature before using.

For the lime berry soda: Fill a 12-ounce glass with ice. Top with 1 ounce berry syrup and the sparkling water (save the remaining berry syrup for another use). Stir to combine. Garnish with the lime wedge and mint sprig.

Limeade and Mint Soda

mint leaves,

store-bought pure or freshly squeezed lime juice

Sparkling water,

Lime rounds,

Combine the sugar with 1 cup water in a medium saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, stirring until the sugar has dissolved. Turn off the heat and add the mint leaves. Muddle with a muddler or the back of a spoon. Allow to cool completely, about 20 minutes. Strain and discard the mint leaves.

Add the lime juice and 4 cups water to a large pitcher. Pour the simple syrup into the limeade. Stir to combine.

To serve, pour the limeade into glasses filled with ice. Top with some sparkling water. Garnish each with a lime round and mint sprig.

I accidentally picked up lemon juice instead of lime. Doubled the simple sugar and yummy! Light and refreshing. Would be extra nice with some rum. ;-)

Waaay too sour This gave me digestive issues after just 3 sips! I even tried adding another full mint simple sugar concoction... still so sour
