Tirk Kos Krote Komquat Cambodian Komquat Drink

A refreshing tart carbonated komquat-ade from cambodia. calamondins are a cross between a kumquat and a mandarin - i was unable to find either at my local grocery so i made it using 1 medium sized naval orange. the original recipe calls for 3 tbsp of sugar, which makes an incredibly tart beverage - i used sprite and 1/2 cup of sugar because the original was too strong for my tastes. From khmerkromrecipes.com

Steps

Slice 1 calamondin , remove seeds , and set aside.
Juice the remaining three calamondins into a small pitcher , remove seeds.
I used the juice of 1 medium sized orange instead since i was unable to find calamondins.
Add the sugar and club soda to the calamondin juice , stir until dissolved.
The original recipe calls for 3 tbsp of sugar , which i found to be very tart - using 1 / 2 cup will leave you with a beverage sweetened similar to lemonade.
Add ice cubes and garnish with slices of calamondin , serve immediately.
