Inspired by a classic New England raspberry-lime rickey. Our version uses lemon instead of lime for a lightly perfumed and pleasingly tart cooler with a gorgeous color!

Ingredients
For the rickey
- 3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
-
2 tablespoons Fleur Spice Syrup (recipe below)
-
Sea Salt
- Plain seltzer
For garnish
- Curl of lemon peel or thin slice of lemon
-
Rose petals
For the Fleur Spice Syrup
- 1 cup organic cane sugar
-
2 tablespoons Fleur Spice
-
1 tablespoons rose water
Directions
- Put the lemon juice into a 16- to 20-ounce glass; add the Fleur Spice Syrup, a teeny pinch of salt, and enough ice to fill the glass halfway. Pour plain seltzer over the ice, stirring as you pour, until the glass is full.
- Taste to make sure that the sweet-to-tart ratio is just right — add more lemon juice or syrup to your liking. Garnish with lemon (peel or slice) and sprinkle on a few rose petals.
For the Fleur Spice Syrup
- Put the sugar and Fleur Spice into a heavy saucepan and add ½ cup water. Set the pan over medium-high heat; bring the syrup to a boil, stirring gently to dissolve the sugar. Boil for 1 minute, remove the pan from the heat and stir in the rose water.
- Let the syrup cool to room temperature. Strain into a clean jar or bottle, cover tightly, and store in the fridge.
