Objective:
Create and name your own soda flavor.
Details:
How do you make homemade soda? You’ll need to start by creating your own simple syrup! Then, simply mix it with seltzer and you’re done!
1) Start by researching simple syrups and/or homemade soda. (If you need a jumping off point, 50 Homemade Sodas from Food Network is a good start.)
2) Now is your chance to get creative! Using inspiration from the sources you found in step one, design your own soda flavor. You might do this by tweaking a recipe you found online, or come up with something completely original.
3) Bring your flavor to life! That’s right, we want you to test your soda recipe by combining the required ingredients. (This will likely require creating a simple syrup of your desired flavor and combing it with seltzer water.)
4) It’s time for a taste test! Give your soda a taste and decide whether it was a success or a flop.
5) Finally, give your soda a creative name! Choose something that encapsulates both your own personality and the flavor of the soda.
6) Take a photograph of your bubbly beverage and post it in our Facebook Group.
7) Along with your photo, tell us about your culinary adventure!
