Thinking Outside the Glass: Rhubarb Soda
Dear Rhubarb,
You are a most delicious plant.
I’ve spent years trying to creatively use your tart-sweetness in my baking. Every summer I stuff pies, cakes, muffins and crisps chock-full your pink fleshed goodness. I can’t get enough, and I am sad that our time together this year is coming to a halt. Let’s have one last fling!
Something special…
Something out of the ordinary…
Let’s make rhubarb-y magic into the waning summer sunset!
Let us team up for a round of palate tingling… Rhubarb Soda?
Yes – that’s right! Rhubarb Soda.
Carrie Floyd, over at Culinate, has come up with the perfect marriage of drinkable rhubarb-y magic, and let me tell you, it is mighty fine. Mmm, mmm, mmm! Maybe if I’m feeling extra naughty, we can cocktail it up!
This is begging – BEGGING! – to have vodka added to it.
I have been told that it is amazing with vodka and mottled/bruised/crushed strawberries.
