# Taste
I'm ignoring carbonation since everyone is going to probably use something
different. _However_, I used a Soda Stream set to **2** which gave me a
very fine carbonation and a very nice head when poured over ice.
Taste wise this is going to be very flowery, cinnamon-y, cola.
# Ingredients
_Makes 4 cups of syrup total_.
| Amount | Item |
|------|----|
|1 tsp | Cinnamon |
|1 tsp | Nutmeg |
|1 tsp | Coriander |
|1 tbsp | Brown Sugar |
|1/2 tsp | Anise |
|1/2 tsp | Citric Acid |
| 2 | Oranges worth of **zest** |
| 1 | Lemon worth of **zest** |
| 2 Cups | Water |
| 2 Cups | Sugar |
# Process
Mix the following together:
* Cinnamon
* Nutmeg
* Coriander
* Brown Sugar
* Anise
* Citric Acid
* Oranges zest
* Lemon zest
* 2 cups of water

Mix this up in a pot and get it to simmer for 20 minutes.

While the pot is simmering take the 2 cups of sugar and blitz it in a food
processor. Doing this makes the sugar dissolve more easily later on when we
mix everything.
For now while waiting move the sugar to a large bowl.
Once the 20 minutes on the pot is up grab a fine sieve and strain the pot's
mixture through into the bowl with the sugar. Let cool and mix occasionally for
about 15 minutes.
You're looking for a simple-syrup consistency.
Once cool you can mix with club soda, sparkling mineral water, or if you have a
Soda Stream use that, to add some carbonation.
## Ration for soda
**4:1** of Water to syrup.
# Additional Notes
You can also add 1 tsp of vanilla bean, or like a splash of vanilla extract
near the end when you are mixing with the sugar.
If the final product is too syrupy then turn it down to like a **5:1** ratio.
Any lower and you might start to dilute the flavor too much.
Finally if you don't like the color then you can add blue + red to make the color
a bit darker, similar to the pic below. I used **5 blue to 4 red**.
