How to make it

5 steps. Take it one step at a time.

  1. Juice the fresh limes

    Juice the fresh limes until you have approximately 120 ml (4.1 oz) of juice.

  2. Combine the fresh lime juice, cherry syrup, and granulated sugar

    In a large pitcher, combine the fresh lime juice, cherry syrup, and granulated sugar. Stir vigorously until the sugar is completely dissolved.

  3. Fill the pitcher or individual glasses

    Fill the pitcher or individual glasses with ice cubes.

  4. Pour the chilled sparkling water

    Pour the chilled sparkling water into the pitcher. Stir gently to combine without losing too much carbonation.

  5. Garnish with maraschino cherries and fresh lime slices before serving…

    Garnish with maraschino cherries and fresh lime slices before serving immediately.

A little kitchen wisdom

For the best flavor, use fresh limes rather than bottled juice. If you prefer a sweeter drink, use lemon-lime soda instead of sparkling water and omit the extra sugar.

Keep the good going

For now. And for later.

Make it ahead

You can mix the lime juice, syrup, and sugar ahead of time, but do not add the sparkling water or ice until just before serving to keep it fizzy.

Store & enjoy

Best consumed immediately. Once sparkling water is added, it will go flat within a few hours.
