Strawberry Limeade Punch

[ssba]

Strawberry Limeade Punch makes a fabulous drink to serve at any party!
Strawberry Limeade Punch - Diary of a Recipe Collector

 

Hey y’all!  I’m so excited to share this drink with you today!  But first, I must tell you a little background and share a little something you may or may not know about me.

When I was a Senior in high school, I worked as a Sonic carhop.  I have to say it was one of the most fun jobs ever!  First, I worked with several of my high school friends, which is pretty much what it is all about at that age.  Second, I made great tips and paid for my Senior trip with that money!  Third, I got the best experience making the coolest drinks and ice cream treats on the planet.  I mean let’s face it.  Sonic does have the best refreshing treats around!  It was so fun learning how to make all that stuff.

So my number one favorite drink to this day is a Strawberry Limeade.  I loved it and craved it for 3 out of 4 of my pregnancies.  They just never get old to me.

Basically, the drink is really easy to make, but there was always something missing when I made it at home.  All they do is squeeze fresh lime juice over ice, add sugared strawberries, and fill up with Sprite.  Easy, right?  Yes!  But there is one little problem that I always have.  I don’t feel like they are quite as good at home without that fountain drink machine.

Until now!

When I made these the other day, even my non-fruity drinking husband like them!  My secret was to make more of a bulk punch version and add limeade concentrate and strawberry kiwi juice.  It really brought it to a whole new level and dare I say, even better than the original!

This will definitely be served a lot this summer!

    I have to say, I think that sounds like one of the funnest jobs a high schooler (or even college student) could have! And your version of this drinks sounds absolutely amazing – so refreshing and such a flavor burst.
