This drink is the kind of unexpected combination that sounds a little wild until you actually taste it โ and then you wonder why you haven't been making it all summer. Strong brewed coffee meets bright, tart lemon juice and a homemade maple simple syrup that adds just enough sweetness without tipping into dessert territory. The sparkling water brings everything together with a satisfying fizz that makes it feel genuinely special, like something you'd order at a trendy cafรฉ for way too much money. Every ingredient here is naturally free from lupin and lupin-derived additives, so there's no label-scanning required โ just real, whole ingredients you likely already have on hand. The maple syrup is made from scratch in about two minutes, which means you control exactly what goes into it. Pouring the sparkling water slowly down the side of the glass is a small step that makes a big difference, keeping that effervescence alive right through the last sip. Serve it over a tall glass of ice with a lemon slice on the rim and it looks as good as it tastes.

Combine the maple syrup and water in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring until the syrup is fully dissolved and the mixture just comes to a simmer, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature, about 20โ30 minutes.
Divide the ice evenly between two tall glasses. Pour 1/2 cup of the cooled coffee over the ice in each glass.
