Since it’s almost summer and the Sonic in my sister’s small town just went out of business, I thought I would post the recipe for one of my favorite drinks ever: Cherry Limeade. It’s fizzy, light, refreshing and the perfect drink for warmer weather. {A nice change from all those grilling recipes!
} If you know me or have read some of my previous blog posts, then you know how much I love Sonic and their onion rings, corn dogs and diet cherry limeades. Well, after I posted this recipe, a sweet lady named Deb left a comment telling me how to make my beloved Cherry Limeade. {Hi, Deb!} If you have never had a Cherry Limeade from Sonic before {or experienced happy hour there}, then you are totally missing out. It is at the top of my list for favorite drinks. Oh, and I use diet soda, so it’s completely guilt free. Bonus!If you can believe, this recipe only calls for three main ingredients: Lemon Lime Soda {you’re supposed to use Sprite, but I couldn’t find the diet version here, so I used 7-up}, grenadine, and fresh lime juice. You’ll need ice, maraschino cherries and lime wedges to garnish too, but really, that’s optional. Basically, you pour everything into a pitcher and stir. See? Easy! Just what I like. I got my niece to help me gather things together to make this a few days ago and she was so totally thrilled with this fancy ‘bubble drink’. Isn’t she cute?
If you are getting warmer weather, give this recipe a try! And if you’re not, make a full pitcher and remember the days when the weather was warmer! Have a great weekend!
