Method

Restated from the original video

1. 1

   Rinse the tarragon well and shake it dry.

2. 2

   Blend the tarragon with the sugar to a wet green paste. Without a blender, chop the leaves very finely and grind them with the sugar.

3. 3

   Pour the water over the paste, stir and leave to steep until it cools to room temperature, about 20 min.

4. 4

   Line a sieve with three or four layers of cheesecloth and strain the mixture, squeezing hard to get out every drop of green liquid.

5. 5

   Stir in the juice of the lemon and lime. This concentrate keeps for about a week in a sealed jar in the fridge.

6. 6

   Just before serving, mix the concentrate with the sparkling water and pour over ice.
