"An Italian soda is one of the tastiest secret hacks. Despite Olive Garden's Italian cuisine, the restaurant chain doesn't formally offer this delicious drink that can be made in all kinds of fun flavors."
"Italian soda was actually invented in the United States, San Francisco to be precise, in 1925. Italian immigrants Rinaldo and Ezilda Torres founded Torani syrups, then created Italian sodas by mixing the syrups into soda water."
"There are so many possibilities for Italian soda flavors - just look to Torani's own lineup of syrups from lavender to cheesecake."
Olive Garden offers a secret menu hack for Italian sodas, which are not officially on the menu. Customers can request flavor syrups mixed with club soda, and optionally add half-and-half or whipped cream. Italian sodas originated in San Francisco in 1925 by Italian immigrants who created flavored syrups. The drink combines sweetness from the syrup with the effervescence of soda, and cream adds a rich finish. Popular flavors include vanilla, raspberry, and grenadine, with many other options available.
