  2. While the syrup cools, fill a glass with ice cubes. Optionally, freeze lemon slices in ice cube trays ahead of time for enhanced presentation.
  3. Pour 2-3 tablespoons of syrup over the ice in the prepared glass, then top off with cold sparkling water.
  4. Garnish the mocktail with a slice of lemon and a sprig of fresh thyme before serving.
