Sandi Huang's Strawberry Limeade

from Our Best Bites

Fresh Strawberry Limeade
Recipe (can you even call this a recipe??) by Our Best Bites

1 tall glass
Lots of ice
Sprite (or Diet Sprite…or Ginger Ale if you’re feeling wild)
1 1/2 limes
3-4 tablespoons Strawberry Sauce

Strawberry Sauce

1 pint strawberries
1/3 c. white sugar
1 tsp. vanilla extract
Wash strawberries and remove stems. Roughly chop the strawberries and throw them in a medium saucepan. Add sugar and vanilla and cook over medium heat. Bring to a simmer and then stir mixture constantly for 5 minutes. Turn off heat and allow mix to cool. Use a blender to puree the mixture.

To make Strawberry Limeade

Fill a glass with ice. Squeeze the juice of one lime into the glass over the ice. Fill the glass about halfway with Sprite. Add 3-4 tablespoons of strawberry sauce. Top the glass off with Sprite and add more strawberry sauce if desired. Garnish with lime wedges (which you can also squeeze into the glass before drinking. Definitely best when served with a straw.
