Ingredients
- 1 cup water
- 1/4 cup monk fruit sweetener
- 2 strips orange peel
- 2 strips lemon peel
- 2 strips lime peel
- 2 strips gondhoraj lime peel
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 1 thin slice ginger
- 7 coriander seeds
- 5 cloves
- 1 star anise
- 5 black peppercorns
- 1 tbsp gondhoraj lime juice
- juice of 1/2 lemon
- 1 tbsp orange juice
- 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar (adjust to taste)
- pinch of salt
Serve
- glass of ice
- 3 tbsp diet coke syrup
- club soda, as required
Instructions:
- Heat a pan and add the monk fruit sweetener. You can use any sweetener you prefer such as coconut sugar, jaggery or refined sugar but it won’t really be a “Diet Coke”.
- Using gondhoraj lime, lime, lemon and orange, gently peel the skin to get a few strips from each fruit.
- Add the fruit peels to the pan along with the spices: cinnamon, star anise, black peppercorns, ginger, cloves and coriander seeds. Let this simmer on low heat for at least 10 minutes until the mixture is aromatic and turns slightly orange in colour.
- Turn off the heat, cover the pan with a lid and let it sit for 10 minutes so the flavours can settle.
- Add the fresh juices: lemon juice, gondhoraj lime juice and orange juice along with vanilla extract, a splash of balsamic vinegar and a pinch of salt. Mix well and let the syrup come to room temperature.
- Strain the syrup and chill it in the fridge for at least a few hours before using.
- To make the drink, fill a glass with ice, add a few tablespoons of the “Diet Coke” syrup, top with unflavoured club soda, mix and enjoyy!
