Ingredients

  • 4 oz. rhubarb simple syrup (recipe below)
  • 4 oz. vodka
  • 4 small scoops vanilla ice cream
  • Soda water

Rhubarb Simple Syrup

  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cups chopped rhubarb

Instructions

  • Divide simple syrup and vodka between two glasses and then add two small scoops of ice cream to each.
  • Fill the rest of the glasses all the way up with soda water. Serve with straws.

Rhubarb Simple Syrup

  • In a medium saucepan, bring sugar, water, and chopped rhubarb to a boil.
  • Lower heat and let mixture simmer for about 10 minutes, until sugar is dissolved and mixture has thickened a bit.
  • Remove saucepan from heat and strain the syrup into a heat-proof bowl. Press down on the mushy rhubarb to extract as much liquid as possible from it. Dispose of rhubarb mush or eat it like applesauce! Put syrup in the fridge to let it cool completely.

Notes

Feel free to leave the vodka out of this ice cream soda if you prefer.
