Description

Cherry limeade, made with lemon-lime soda, cherry syrup, a splash of maraschino cherry juice, and fresh squeezed lime juice, is a refreshing and delicious summer drink.

Ingredients

  • 2 tsp maraschino cherry juice
  • 1 oz Grenadine
  • 1 lemon-line soda - 7-up, sierra mist or Sprite
  • Crushed Ice
  • 2 wedges lime

Instructions

Add cherry juice and syrup to a 12-ounce glass and top with lemon-lime soda to fill glass about halfway; stir to blend. Fill glass with crushed ice, top off with additional soda, if needed, then squeeze two lime wedges in and drop them on top; add a maraschino cherry and straw.

Notes

 Notes: I use Sierra Mist Natural. Good choices for commercial cherry syrups are DaVinci, Torani, Hawaiian Shaved, Juicy Juice and other snow cone brands of syrup. If you want to go for a pitcher, a 1/2 gallon is 64 ounces, or a little more than 5 of these 12-ounce glasses.
