Homemade Ginger Cardamom Soda With Lime image

This is a good recipe, and can be changed up with different fruits and spices! For example, lightly crush berries and blend them with sugar and water to make a berry-flavored syrup. Add fresh basil to peach puree to spice up a non-alcohol Bellini! Many options await you and will delight your guests. Posted by Michael Dietsch on Serious Eats.
