4 servings
For the vanilla simple syrup
- ⅓ cup maple syrup
- ⅓ cup water
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
For the agua fresca
- 2 cups fresh orange juice (from about 4 medium navel oranges), strained
Ingredient noteLow residue diets limit fruit juices that still contain pulp because pulp adds fiber and residue. The orange juice here is strained and pulp-free and used in a small amount, so it is likely low residue. If you prefer to always avoid orange juice, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- 2 tbsp fresh lime juice (from about 1 lime)
Ingredient noteFruit juice contains far less fiber than whole fruit, so the lime juice used here leaves little residue. If you prefer to always avoid lime juice, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- 3 cups chilled sparkling water
- 1 pinch fine salt
For serving
- ice cubes, for serving
- orange slices or fresh mint sprigs, for garnish (optional)
Instructions

Combine the maple syrup and water in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring until the syrup fully dissolves, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Let the syrup cool for at least 15 minutes until it reaches room temperature.

Juice the oranges and lime, then strain the juice through a fine-mesh strainer into a large pitcher to remove pulp and seeds.
