Ingredients

  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup water
  • 6 ounces blueberries
  • Zest of 1/2 small lemon
  • 8 ounces half and half (about 2 ounces per drink)
  • 24 ounces plain club soda (about 6 ounces per drink)
  • Whipped topping for garnish

Instructions

  1. Add the sugar and water to a sauce pan over high heat. Stir to help dissolve the sugar, and bring the mixture to a boil.
  2. Add the blueberries and lemon zest. Stir. Reduce the heat to simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes. The blueberries should burst as the mixture simmers.
  3. Remove from the heat and allow the mixture to cool. When cool, strain to separate the liquid from the blueberries (don’t smash the blueberries as you strain the mixture). Save the blueberry remains for a smoothie or toss in some yogurt.
  4. Fill a 12-ounce glass about halfway with ice cubes. Add 2 ounces of the blueberry syrup to the glass.
  5. Add 6 ounces of club soda to the glass, then about 2 ounces of half and half.
  6. Garnish with whipped topping and serve with a straw.
  7. Stir and enjoy.

    This looks absolutely amazing! I used to order Italian cream sodas when I was a kid at Borders when they were still around and never had them since. I never thought of making my own now that I'm an adult! I am definitely bookmarking this to try!
