Ingredients
Scale
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup hot water
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
2 cups club soda, chilled
1/4 teaspoon grenadine (optional, for color)
Ice cubes
Lemon slices, for garnish
Fresh mint sprigs, for garnish
Instructions
In a small bowl, stir together the honey and hot water until the honey is dissolved. Let it cool slightly. This creates your honey simple syrup.
In a pitcher, combine the honey simple syrup and fresh lemon juice.
If using, add the grenadine for a pink hue and stir gently.
Add ice cubes to the pitcher.
Pour in the chilled club soda.
Stir gently to combine.
Pour into glasses filled with ice.
Garnish each glass with a lemon slice and a sprig of fresh mint.
Notes
For a stronger lemon flavor, add more lemon juice.
Adjust the amount of honey to your sweetness preference.
If you don’t have club soda, sparkling water or seltzer can be used.
For a vibrant pink color without grenadine, you can muddle a few raspberries or strawberries in the bottom of the pitcher before adding other ingredients.
