Ingredients

Scale

1 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1 cup water

1 tsp vanilla extract

Ice

Club soda or flavored soda water

Half and half (or any milk/cream alternative)

Whipped cream (optional)

Maraschino cherries, chocolate shavings, or mini marshmallows for garnish

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare Your Ingredients
Gather all your ingredients on the counter, including the soda, cream, flavored syrup, and ice. Make sure everything is within reach to streamline your process.
Step 2: Fill Your Glass
Start by filling a glass with ice cubes. Aim for about halfway full, as this will chill your drink without watering it down too quickly.
Step 3: Add the Flavored Syrup
Pour in your chosen flavored syrup over the ice. You can be generous here; about 23 tablespoons typically works well to bring out the sweet flavor.
Step 4: Pour the Club Soda
Next, gently pour club soda over the ice and syrup mixture. The fizz will give your drink a delightful effervescence, so pour slowly to prevent overflow.
Step 5: Add the Cream
Top your drink with a splash of cream. You can swirl it in for a marbled effect or layer it on top for a beautiful contrast, depending on your preference.
Step 6: Stir and Enjoy
Use a straw or a spoon to mix the flavors together. Take a moment to enjoy the vibrant look of your delicious creation before indulging in that first sip

Notes

Tip 1: Experiment with Flavors

Feel free to mix and match different flavored syrups to create your perfect blending of tastes, such as raspberry or cherry.

Tip 2: Use a Larger Glass

If youre making generous servings, consider using a larger glass to prevent spills and to accommodate all the delicious ingredients.
