    How do I make it green?
    Community Answer
    A few drops of green food coloring should do the trick. The more food coloring, the more intense the green color. Use just a drop or so for a pastel or light green.

    Can I use any kind of syrup instead of vanilla extract?
    Community Answer
    Syrup should work, although it wouldn't taste as good as vanilla. I would recommend simple syrup with some flavoring.

    Can I just add vanilla and sugar to carbonated water?
    Community Answer
    No, not at all. You will wind up with a flavor that is closer to vanilla rather than cream soda. It will also be very bitter.
  • Question
    Do both methods taste the same, or is one better than the other?
    Community Answer
    I would recommend adding 2 cups of lemon juice to the first one to make it as good as the second one. They're the same for the most part, though. The second method just tastes more homemade.
