Ingredients
  

For the Cherry Limeade
  • 1 cup fresh-squeezed lime juice Use fresh for best flavor
  • 1/2 cup sugar Adjust to taste
  • 4 cups sparkling water Add just before serving
  • 1 cup Maraschino cherries For garnish
  • to taste ice For serving

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a pitcher, combine fresh-squeezed lime juice and sugar, stirring until the sugar is fully dissolved.
  2. Slowly add the sparkling water and stir gently to mix everything together.
  3. Serve the Cherry Limeade over ice, garnished with Maraschino cherries for that extra pop of color and flavor.

Notes

To maintain freshness, avoid mixing all of the sparkling water into the pitcher right away. For long-term storage, keep lime juice and sugar mixture separate from the sparkling water.
