Ingredients
  

Drink Ingredients
  • 8-10 oz Sprite or any lemon-lime soda, chilled
  • 2 tbsp strawberry syrup store-bought or homemade
  • 0.25 cup fresh strawberries hulled and sliced
  • 1 whole strawberry for garnish
  • 1 wedge lime or lemon optional, for fresh juice
  • 1.5 cups ice pebble or crushed preferred

Equipment

  • Tall glass or Mason jar
  • Long stirring spoon
  • Cutting board and knife

Method
 

  1. Fill a tall glass completely to the top with ice.
  2. Drop the freshly sliced strawberries directly over the ice.
  3. Carefully pour the strawberry syrup over the ice and fruit.
  4. If using, squeeze the fresh lime or lemon wedge into the glass.
  5. Slowly pour the chilled Sprite into the glass until full.
  6. Using a long spoon, gently stir the drink to incorporate the syrup at the bottom without losing the carbonation.
  7. Garnish the rim of the glass with a whole strawberry and serve immediately.

Notes

Do not mix large batches of this drink ahead of time, as the soda will go flat. Add the Sprite right before serving for maximum fizz.
