Cocktails with Cherry soda
Cherry soda is a non-alcoholic, cherry-flavored carbonated soft drink.
How it's used
It brings cherry flavor, fizz and plenty of sugar in one pour. Pour it last, down the side of the glass, into cold liquid so it keeps its gas.
Substitutes for Cherry soda
Soda water and cherry syrup
Mix about 15 ml of syrup with 85 ml of soda water. The sweetness matches most bottled sodas.
Cherry cola
Pour the same amount. The color turns darker and a distinct cola flavor takes over.
Cherry syrup
Avoid pouring it straight. Using a concentrate instead of soda leaves everything flat and overly sweet.
Storage
Keep it cold and use it soon after opening. Once it goes flat it cannot be revived, so small bottles waste less.
