Christmas Cream Soda Ingredients
The following ingredient measurements make one Italian Cream Soda
Club soda: You will need 1/2 cup of club soda to make this tasty drink.

Half & half: To give this drink great taste and a creamy consistency, use 1 tablespoon of half and half.

Easy step by step on how to make Christmas Cream Sodas
Begin by adding ice to a clear glass, line up however many drinks you want to make.
Then, measure out the club soda and pour into each glass. If you have larger glasses, you can adjust the amount of each ingredient slightly to fill the glass more.
Next, add in the Torani syrup flavor of your choice and pour over the club soda.
After that, pour in the half and half on top of the other ingredients. Hold off on stirring the drinks at this time.
If desired, serve with whipped cream and a cherry on top, as well as a cute straw to stir with prior to drinking. It is fun to admire the cool swirls of the syrup and cream, but I do encourage everyone to give it a little stir before drinking so that all the flavors mix together.
Serve immediately and enjoy!

HOW DO YOU AVOID CURDLING IN CREAM SODAS?
To postpone the curding in a homemade cream soda is to add the syrup first, then club soda, ice cubes and then pour the cream over the top. Then you gently stir the drink to mix before drinking.
