Big thanks go to ‘So hungry I could blog‘ for this remarkable Espresso Soda recipe.
The perfect pick me up for the afternoon lull, the ‘syrup’ can be kept in the fridge and a soda made at the drop of a hat. Much more refreshing than iced milk-based coffee drinks, it would make the ideal partner to an afternoon spent outside in the summer sun (when the time comes)!
