This is as easy at it sounds — almost effortless, really. Just be sure to use a vermouth you really love (I’m a fan of dark, robust, earthy Spanish ones) and keep the bottle in the fridge.

Can you tell me what you buy? I wouldn't know a "Nice" vermouth if I tripped over it. Thanks.

Ron Aaronson

If you're not mixing the vermouth with anything else other than soda water, could you do much better than Carpano Antica Formula?

Carolyn

Try adding liquor to your favorite kombucha. Whiskey + blood orange; gin or vodka + lemon ginger; rum + pineapple. Very easy, low sugar, carbonation, and healthy bacteria!

Rachel

I added a tablespoon or so of olive brine to excellent effect

Bravo spirits pink vermouth is my favorite summer “sipping” vermouth. I keep it in the fridge so it’s ready to be served on ice or with bubbly water. Sweet and pretty.

Heather S.

Simple and refreshing.
