Italian Cream Soda

This drink was surprisingly good. I like it a little creamier so I add more half and half. I also substituted raspberry for the watermelon and it was delicious!

Awesome so good at my party

Used to buy this drink at a little cafe12-13 years ago, moved away and never could find them again! Very excited when I saw this recipe, had to order the syrups due to our location, very rural, little choices–boy am I GLAD I did!!! LOVE this drink!!! Thanks SO much for sharing!! A KEEPER for sure!!!

I’ve been making my own Italian sodas for years, and are beyond fantastic! My favorite flavor combination is raspberry and peach…SO tasty!!

These are so delicious, pretty & easy to make. You can use the same brand of syrups used to flavor coffee. Someone gave me a bottle of raspberry so that’s what I’ve been using but this combo sounds really good!

LOVE It!!! Better than the restaurants serve!

I used pomegranate/blackberry italian soda and added 1 tsp of sugar to my half n half. I know I added way to much milk. maybe I will make a sugar water and add less milk. But it was still very yummy!!!!!

I let everyone choose their own flavor combo and only one person went with this particular combo. They all loved them, whatever flavor they chose. PS if your cream goes clumpy you were probably using a sugar free syrup. Try regular.

Couldn’t find passion fruit and watermelon so used raspberry. Drink could use more syrup and less half and half but very refreshing.

I was paying for these at our favorite restaurant then decided I could have any flavor I wanted at home for a fraction of the price…They are so refreshing and delicious. My favorite flavor is vanilla and my husbands is raspberry.

Love Italian sodas! I used this recipe as a base but with different flavors. I have used milk as I don’t always have cream handy and I add a bit more than this recipe calls for. For those having problems with curdling, I read somewhere that if you put the syrup in the glass first, then the milk/cream, stir. Then add the ice and finally the carbonated/soda water. Not sure if that works all the time, but it does for me. 🙂

I used blackberry syrup, and it needed a LOT more half and half and some stevia. Good though.

I made one of these with raspberry flavored syrup for ‘dessert’ tonight – it’s great with orange, too!

I didn’t like this at all. I made my own watermelon syrup and used that for the full amount of syrup called for in the recipe, omitting the passion fruit syrup. I used a ‘cream’ that was a blend of milk and cream that was 5%. I didn’t have ice (all those dang trays were cracked…) but I did use all cold ingredients. Perhaps the syrup portion relies heavily on the artificially flavoured stuff commercially available, while the one I made contains nothing but pure watermelon. I did not like the cream with soda water, but I didn’t have the curdling issue many reviews mention. This may be for some, but not for others.

A nice change on a hot day

I used different flavored syrups. This recipe was a great base.

My sons love Italian Sodas, so we decided to make them ourselves. We used Raspberry and Vanilla flavoring. The drinks were fabulous! Will make again and again.

Delish! I used cherry syrup because that is all I could find. I didnt know it would be that easy to make. 🙂 Thanks for the recipe!

OMG the best drink ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

oooosum!!

I used the sugar free Toriani Raspberry syrup, and fat free half and half. It was delicious. My two year old also loved it!
