Cherry Vodka Limeade

Description: My friend, Katherine, introduced me to this drink on the 4th of July. It is a refreshing summertime drink. She prefers hers without the extra cherry juice, but I like the extra cherry flavor that it adds. Try it both ways to see which you prefer!

Ingredients:

• 2 ounces cherry vodka (I used Three Olives Brand)
• 1 ounce lime juice (fresh squeezed or I used juice from concentrate)
• 4 ounces Sprite (or 7-up...I used diet 7-up)
• 1/2 ounce cherry juice (from the jar of cherries or find it bottled in the mixed drink section at your grocery store)
• 1 maraschino cherry

Steps:

1. Fill a 16 ounce glass with ice.
2. Add first 4 ingredients.
3. Stir.
4. Garnish with a cherry if desired.
