Step 1
Fill a tall glass with ice cubes, packing them in firmly.
Step 2
Pour the fruit syrup slowly over the ice until it reaches halfway up the glass.
Step 3
Top with sparkling water, filling the glass almost to the rim.
Step 4
Pour the cream slowly over the back of a bar spoon so it floats on top in a creamy layer.
Step 5
Garnish with a cherry or fruit slice on the rim and serve with a straw.
