Ingredients
  

2 cups water
1 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
1/2 teaspoon cola-flavored syrup (you can buy this online or at specialty stores)
1/4 teaspoon cherry extract
1/4 teaspoon anise extract
1/4 teaspoon caramel syrup
1/4 teaspoon lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon lime juice
Club soda (to taste)
Ice cubes
Maraschino cherries and lime slices (for garnish)

Method
 

Make the Syrup: In a medium saucepan, combine the 2 cups of water and 1 cup of granulated sugar. Heat over medium heat, stirring until the sugar is fully dissolved. Remove from heat and allow the syrup to cool.
    Add Flavors: Once the syrup has cooled, add the vanilla extract, almond extract, cola-flavored syrup, cherry extract, anise extract, caramel syrup, lemon juice, and lime juice. Stir well to combine all flavors.
      Chill the Mixture: Place the flavored syrup in the refrigerator and let it chill for at least 1 hour. This allows the flavors to meld together.
        Mix the Soda: To serve, fill a glass with ice cubes. Pour 1/4 cup of the flavored syrup over the ice. Top with club soda to your taste, stirring gently to mix.
          Garnish: Add a maraschino cherry and a slice of lime to each glass for an extra touch of flavor and presentation.
            Enjoy: Your homemade Dr Pepper soda is ready! Sip and enjoy the fizzy delight, knowing you crafted it yourself!
