Homemade Cream Soda with Fig Leaf = Best Highball Cocktail!

Cream Soda made with Fig Leaf is the secret for the best Highball! Fig leaves have a mild, slightly sweet flavor, with subtle notes of vanilla and coconut, so today I’ll show you how to turn them into a delicious creamy soda, and use that for a highball that’s perfect for the end of the summer. We’ll then pair it with Irish whiskey and dry vermouth, for a perfectly balanced cocktail that will for sure catch your guests’ eye. That’s why I’ll teach you how to make both a single serving, as well as a batched version for your next party or event, so if you’re ready pull up a chair and get comfortable. It’s Cocktail Time!
