Notes
Orange blossom water has a strong flavor, so use it sparingly. Start with 2 drops and add more to taste.
For a sweeter drink, use more honey syrup. For a tarter version, add extra lemon juice.
You can make a big batch for parties by multiplying the recipe. Mix everything except the club soda in advance, then add soda to each glass when serving.
Try different garnishes like mint leaves or a cinnamon stick for variety.
