Cherry Limeade

SERVES
4
PREP
5 Min

The sweetness of the cherry and the bitterness of the lime combine together to give your taste buds a wake-up call.

What You'll Need

  • 1 (6-ounce) jar maraschino cherries with stems
  • 1 (6-ounce) can frozen limeade concentrate, thawed and undiluted
  • 1 cup water
  • 2 cups lime-flavored or plain sparkling water, chilled
  • Lime slices (optional)

What to Do

  1. Drain cherries, reserving 1/3 cup juice. Set aside 8 cherries, reserving remaining cherries for another use.

  2. Combine 1/3 cup cherry juice, the limeade concentrate, and 1 cup water in a pitcher. Cover and chill thoroughly.

  3. Just before serving, stir in sparkling water. Serve with cherries over crushed ice. Garnish with lime slices, if desired.

Notes

Rather than serving this fruity beverage over crushed ice, try freezing a little extra sparkling water in ice cube trays. This'll help prevent regular ice from diluting your drink. Add a stemmed cherry to each cube for a colorful touch. You're guaranteed a quick cool-down either way you serve it!
