Cherry Limeade is a refreshing, sweet-tart drink made with juicy cherries, freshly squeezed lime juice, and fizzy soda. Perfect for summer sipping!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen cherries, pitted
  • 1/2 cup fresh lime juice (about 4 limes)
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar (adjust to taste)
  • 2 cups cold lemon-lime soda (or club soda for less sweetness)
  • 1 cup ice cubes
  • Lime slices and extra cherries for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a blender, combine cherries, lime juice, and sugar. Blend until smooth.
  2. Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve to remove solids, if desired.
  3. Fill a pitcher or glass with ice cubes.
  4. Pour the cherry-lime mixture over the ice and top with cold soda. Stir gently to combine.
  5. Garnish with lime slices and extra cherries. Serve immediately!

Notes

  • Adjust sugar to taste based on the sweetness of your cherries.
  • For a grown-up version, add a splash of vodka or rum.
  • Make ahead: Store the cherry-lime base in the fridge for up to 2 days and add soda when ready to serve.
