Synthetic Cola

1 tbsp sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/8 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp bottled lime juice
1/2 cup club soda

Mix well and add ice.

This will look very different than real cola.   Blindfold your
friend and have him or her try to tell which is your synthetic
cola.  Be sure they have plenty of ice in them.  You may need to
vary the amounts of sugar and lime juice a bit until your cola is
as sweet as real cola.  It will be interesting as you vary the
ingredients little by little until you are able to match very
closely the taste of real cola.  (This recipe only makes 1/2 cup,
so vary the amounts as necessary for larger quantities.)
