Ingredients
  

1 cup soda water (club soda or sparkling water)

1/4 cup flavored syrup (vanilla, raspberry, or your choice)

1/2 cup heavy cream or half-and-half

Ice cubes

Whipped cream (for topping)

Maraschino cherries (for garnish)

Fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Glass: Start by filling a tall glass with ice cubes to chill your drink effectively.

    Add the Flavored Syrup: Pour the flavored syrup of your choice over the ice. Vanilla is classic, but feel free to get creative with raspberry or any fruit flavor you enjoy!

      Pour the Soda Water: Gently pour the soda water into the glass over the syrup and ice. Stir slowly to combine, ensuring you don't lose the carbonation.

        Incorporate the Cream: In a separate small bowl or measuring cup, pour the heavy cream or half-and-half. Slowly drizzle it into the glass over the soda mixture, letting it mix slightly for a marbled effect.

          Top it Off: Finish off your drink with a generous dollop of whipped cream on top.

            Garnish and Serve: Add a maraschino cherry on top for that classic touch. Optionally, you can also add a few fresh mint leaves for an extra burst of color and aroma.

              Enjoy: Serve immediately with a straw and enjoy your refreshing and indulgent Italian Cream Soda!
