🧾 Ingredients (typical for the lemon variety)

• Sugar

• Citric acid – for fizz and refreshment

• Acidity regulator: sodium bicarbonate (a base used to create effervescence)

• Lemon powder / dry matter from lemon concentrate (~1 %)

• Lemon flavouring

• Colouring: beta-carotene

• Liquorice extract (for flavour and stabilisation) (shop.herbex.cz)

Ingredients may vary depending on the specific batch or recipe – always check the label on the packaging.

📊 How it works

• Preparation: Empty the contents of 1 sachet into ~0.3 l of well-chilled water and stir thoroughly – the powder reacts with the water to create a fizzy, refreshing drink.

• Fizz: The combination of citric acid and sodium bicarbonate creates bubbles – the drink mimics classic fizzy drinks such as ‘šuměnka’.

🥤 Taste and characteristics

• Flavour: intense lemon flavour with a slightly sweet and fizzy texture.

• Refreshment: ideal for quickly preparing a refreshing drink without sparkling mineral water.

📌 Tips

• Serve well chilled for maximum refreshment.

• Can be topped up with ice or pieces of fruit for an extra flavour experience.

• It is not a substitute for traditional soda water; the fizz is created by a chemical reaction between the powder and water.
