Raspberry Vanilla Soda
DIRECTIONS
Set a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the water, sugar, and raspberries.
Cook for about 5 minutes until the mixture is bubbling away and the sugar is dissolved.
Stir and cook this mixture for another 5 minutes, until the raspberries have cooked down.
Set a fine mesh strainer over a bowl and strain the saucepan mixture, pressing down on the raspberry pulp to squeeze out all the juice.
Add the lemon juice and vanilla extract to the bowl and stir the mixture together. Let the mixture chill in the refrigerator to cool.
When serving, fill a glass with ice, add 2 to 3 tbsp of the raspberry syrup, followed by about a cup of club soda on top, and enjoy!
