# Tips from flavorandfeast:

01 -
  • It strikes the perfect balance between tart citrus and floral sweetness without any processed sugar.
  • The effervescence makes it feel like a fancy mocktail even though it takes minutes to make.
02 -
  • Honey resists mixing with cold liquids, so dissolve it in the lemon juice first.
  • Pouring the soda slowly prevents it from going flat too quickly.
03 -
  • Use a warm spoon to help dissolve the honey faster if it is thick.
  • Serve it immediately to enjoy the maximum fizz and freshness.
