In a collins glass, dissolve powdered sugar and carbonated water.
Stir and fill glass with cracked ice add brandy.
Fill with carbonated water or ginger ale and stir again.
Insert a spiral of orange or lemon peel (or both) and dangle end over rim of glass.
Best served immediately after preparation; carbonation dissipates quickly.
Mix the apricot brandy and powdered sugar ahead of time, but add carbonated water just before serving to maintain fizz.
Use Mr. Boston Apricot Flavored Brandy or another quality apricot brandy—avoid harsh, low-quality brands that will dominate the drink.
Stir the powdered sugar into the apricot brandy first until fully dissolved before adding carbonated water.
Serve in a highball or rocks glass over ice to keep the drink cold and the carbonation intact.
