Italian Sodas 3 Submitted by charlie 5 "Having an Italian themed dinner party? Play some Italian music, stick some candles in old wine bottles, and let your guests make their own Italian sodas. My kids really like these. I buy my Torani Syrup at a store called World Market - they have many flavors and even sugar-free types. The flavor combinations are endless. Under directions I've listed a few of our favorite flavor combinations. Also, Torani syrup is so versatile for other things; drizzle some on a dessert plate, over cheesecake, lace a bowl of ice cream, or mix with some whipping cream for a new flavor. Mix some strawberry flavor with lemonade. Ok, I'll stop now."   icons / ellipsis / ellipsis-horizontal save Download Print Share I Made This photo by Baby Kato Ready In: 1min Ingredients: 4 Serves: 1 Nutrition information

1. We were making italian soda's with lemon lime soda instead of club. and sometimes the half & half appeared to curdle. it didn't happen all the time, but frequently. any ideas? would sugar free torani cause that?   icons / ellipsis / ellipsis-horizontal Kim B. Reply 1 See 2 Replies
2. Thank you charlie #5 for sharing this lovely recipe. I love Italian Sodas and this recipe is no exception. What a great, refreshing, cold treat. I used orange syrup and mixed it with 2 oz of cream. It made a lovely soft subtle tasting orange treat that I will make again. Made for My 3 chefs.   icons / ellipsis / ellipsis-horizontal Baby Kato Reply 1
3. I have been making Italian soda's since I was 11 and looked up instructions on impulse while sipping my butter-beer. A note to people who love this treat: you don't need to stick with Torani, I have used ice-cream topping syrups also. Club Soda/Tonic water while traditional aren't your only option, stay away from any of the more acidic soda's or diet syrups if you want to keep your half and half from curdling, but otherwise it takes a lot to curdle it (you use half&half to blend white Russians and a lot of alcoholic drinks) For a fun one try and make your own simple syrup: equal parts Sugar (the real stuff), item you are reducing (mint, fruit, coffee, green-tea *1 bag : 1 Cup Water : 1 Cup Sugar), and water. Combine in a sauce pan and bring to a boil, allow it to continue to boil while stirring for about 10 minutes then remove from heat, cool and store in the refrigerator. It should be just a little thinner than honey and makes for amazing Italian Soda's or ice-cream toppings!   icons / ellipsis / ellipsis-horizontal Piper R. Reply See 1 Reply

My passions: faith, family, food, and anything family history related. Almost nothing I like more than to chase headstones of my dearly departed ancestors. I've been working on a family cookbook for almost 2 years. (Need to figure out how I want to actually print it.) Enjoy learning about how what I grew up eating relates to my ancestors from Croatia and Alsace primarily. Enjoy following and forming new traditions within the walls of my home. Some would say I lead a very boring and mundane life. I would say it's just what I ordered. I have the opportunity to be a stay-at-home mom - which is what I truly love. Feel it's the best calling anyone could ever have. I've truly been blessed!   View Full Profile Advertisement Advertisement Advertisement
