Advice
Keep everything ice-cold—spirit, glass, and soda. Minimal stirring preserves carbonation and a tight bead so the drink stays brisk to the last sip.
Why it works
Soda lifts medovača’s floral-honey aromatics; lemon oils add brightness while a trace of salt heightens sweetness and rounds the anise/herbal edges some rakijas carry.
Twist
Belgrade Spritz: swap soda for 100 ml (3.4 fl oz) dry sparkling wine + 30 ml (1 fl oz) soda; or add 2 dashes orange bitters for a drier, aperitivo feel.
