The Raspberry Italian Soda keeps the same syrup-and-soda template with a brighter berry profile. Raspberry syrup brings soft tartness that keeps the drink from tasting like plain sweet soda. Served tall over ice, it is an easy hosting default for kids and anyone who wants a dressed zero-proof highball.

Bartender's Note
Raspberry syrup often tastes brighter than cherry; if yours is very sweet, add a thin lemon twist or a splash of fresh lemon. Keep soda fridge-cold.
